NEW AND IMPROVED! NOW A 4 BEDROOM HOME! Lovingly named "Wonderful Waban" by those who recognize this village as one of the best in Newton. No renovations needed, just bring your bathing suit and towel and laze around the beautiful inground pool surrounded by a stunning professionally landscaped garden. Lovely detail throughout, including crown mouldings, bay windows and more. Granite and stainless steel compliment the custom kitchen, with a separate dining area with skylights and sliders to a spacious deck overlooking the pool and gardens. Lower level finished room is perfect for an office, exercise room, playroom or media room. Conveniently located between Newton Centre and Waban Square. Walking distance to the T- Green Line, shops, restaurants and the popular, newly built, state of the art Zervas School. Minutes from Rt. 9, Rt. 95 and the Mass Pike. This is a very special home that has been cherished by the current owners. Don't miss it!!!
