A smaller scale replica of the original owner's English country home, this gracious Colonial boasts many interior features not found in traditional Colonials such as three window seats for reading, two fireplaces, wide staircases with spacious landings, and multipane windows. There is an inviting backyard for play or entertaining. In 2006, an oversized two car garage was built with a 13x27 loft above, suitable for home office or studio. The aquaduct for jogging, Richardson Field for Saturday soccer games, and the new Zervas Elementary School nearby. This home is ideally located in the coveted Waban area of Newton with easy access to its shops, restaurants, and the T.
