Introducing this charming single-family home, tucked away in a quiet Newton neighborhood. This two bedroom property is a great condo alternative and offers two levels of living space. The property has been maintained, offering some updates that have been completed throughout parts of the home. Roof was re-done in 2016, windows installed in 2013, & the full bathroom has new tiling. There is a living room, dining room, and eat-in kitchen with a full bathroom located on the first floor. The two bedrooms, similar in size, are located on the second level.
