About this home

Classic 1929 Tudor in a wonderful location under a mile to both the Newtonville and West Newton villages, this home on a gently sloping 16,500 square foot lot is an ideal project for an end-user or developer. It has easy access to shops, restaurants & the commuter rail and is under a mile to the public elementary & high schools. The foyer opens to a spacious living room with a wood-burning fireplace. Off the living room is a great study. The foyer also opens to the entertainment-sized dining room and the updated eat-in kitchen. Behind the kitchen the first level bedroom with an en-suite full bathroom. On the second floor is a large primary bedroom with an en-suite full bathroom. There are three more bedrooms on this level and another full bathroom. Presently unfinished, the basement houses the systems and provides direct entry to the two car garage. The home has been owned & occupied by the same family for over 60 years; buyers should do their due diligence prior to submitting offers.
