About This Home
As of November 2018OFFER ACCEPTED. OH for backup interest only. This beautiful and bright West Newton home has been lovingly maintained and cared for! Situated on a peaceful side street in a wonderful neighborhood, this could be the one you have been waiting for. The tiled entrance foyer leads to a sunny and inviting living room and a dining room, both with hardwood floors. Classic built in cabinets add a nice touch. Also on the first floor is a half bath and an amazing kitchen that was completely renovated from the studs-out in 2015, including new stainless steel appliances and quartz countertops. The second floor boasts three bedrooms, a full bathroom and a neat laundry room with a stackable w/d. There is plenty of storage space in the basement which also offers good potential for expansion. The well manicured backyard was completely fenced in last year and a pop-up sprinkler system was added in both back and front yards this year. All the big items have been taken care of in this home.
