Set on approximately 1.06 acres on Mount Olive Church Road in Newton, this two-bedroom, one-bath brick home offers a fenced backyard, a detached garage/workshop, and storage on multiple levels. Inside, a fireplace adds character, and central air provides cooling throughout the warmer months. The partially finished basement gives you additional space for hobbies, projects, or storage, while the upstairs attic offers excellent storage for seasonal decorations, luggage, and items you want to keep handy without taking up everyday living space. Out back, the detached garage/workshop sits within the fenced backyard, giving you a dedicated place to set up a workbench, organize tools, or keep lawn and garden equipment close to where you use it. With more than an acre overall, there's room to think beyond the house itself. Picture planting a vegetable garden, adding a spot to sit outside with your morning coffee, or taking your time with landscaping projects as you make the property your own. The separate workshop is especially handy if you like to keep a project set up between weekends, and the attic gives you another place to put things away when the seasons change. The Newton location gives you access to downtown shops, dining, and the historic State Theatre, with an acre-plus setting to come home to. Walk the backyard, step into the workshop, and take a look at the basement and attic while you're here. Take a moment to see how the house and workshop relate to the acreage as you decide where you'd spend most of your time outdoors. From the brick exterior and fireplace to the fenced yard and detached workspace, this property gives you several distinct spaces to put to use from day one. If you've been looking for a two-bedroom home with room to garden, work on projects, and keep the gear that goes with them organized, come see how 3519 Mount Olive Church Road fits your plans.
