About This Home
As of October 2014Careful attention to detail was a big part of this renovation that took place over the last few years. The first floor consists of an inviting enclosed farmers porch, elegant entry foyer, granite counters in the kitchen, formal dining room with original China hutch, living room, mud room and spacious half bath, hardwood floors and French doors too. On the 2nd floor there are two bedrooms with ample closet space and an office, common bathroom updated with marble tile. The 3rd floor was just finished with sky light, new windows, Berber carpet and amazing bathroom, shower head lights up to indicate water temp!! This rooms could be used as a master bedroom suite, man cave, teenager space or guest room-you decide! The basement is semi-finished and gym equipment is included in the sale. Level back yard calls for barbecues, with a great shed for storage. Off street parking for two cars, located on a quiet street within .5 miles to West Newton center, express buses/commuter rail. thanks
