About This Home

As of August 2020

First time offered by original owners who selected one of the best lots in the neighborhood and put a well sized traditional center hall colonial on it. Then, they added upgrades over the years inc: beautiful moldings and architectural ceilings throughout 1st flr, 3 season room addition on main level, and they finished basement with a Rec Rm for rainy day inside activities and a home office there as well. Loads of closets throughout and extra storage rooms on Lower level too. Enjoy the cul-de-sac location and private backyard--great for entertaining and gently rolling topography of the neighborhood which is great for biking and walking. And you can't beat the convenient location--close to new ShopRite & North Village stores, White Lake Park, and the town of Newton. Not to forget the top ranked schools too
