About This Home
As of August 2023Country living right on Main Street, and an opportunity to breathe new life into a piece of Newton’s history! This 2,920 Sq ft, 5 bed, 1 and a half bath home was built in 1916 and comes with 2 parcels that are together almost an acre Located next to Sand Creek, you are able to escape city life in your very own backyard, with a surprisingly peaceful space with mature trees and adventure all around. There is easy access to fishing in your backyard as well as the bike path leading to Centennial Park. The main floor comes with an oversized kitchen with more storage than you can imagine, an oversized ½ bath, a living room, a dining room, as well as an attached space that used to be a judges' den - the outside entrance still exists if you’d like to return it to its former glory! At the top of the historic staircase with banister, you’ll find 5 bedrooms, 3 of which have their own walk-in closets, and a full bathroom. What was once a large garage, served as a camera room, but could function as a large rec room. Additional large storage rooms were added to this space as well. There is also an attached oversized 2 car garage and a partially covered patio on the back of the house. This property served as a business for over 40 years, but the pieces of its former life as a home were preserved, and it’s ready for a small business or family to bring it back to life!
