Listing broker remarks

Witness the perfect combination of tasteful modern updates and turn-of-the-century charm in this sun-filled old-style colonial! Lovingly maintained for over 40 years, this West Newton gem is ready for its next chapter. Move in just in time to enjoy the colorful flower gardens, and host summer cookouts on the backyard patio. The renovated kitchen with maple cabinetry and granite countertops is ready for anything, and the mud room entry keeps everyday life tidy. Finished attic storage space and a detached garage mean you'll never run out of room, and the semi-fenced yard is ideal for pets and little ones alike. Owned solar panels mean almost zero electric bills. Exceptional location puts at least 7 restaurants and bars, as well as 4 different playgrounds within half a mile. Nature lovers will appreciate being just 0.3 miles from the serene 8-acre Dolan Pond Conservation Area, complete with peaceful paths and boardwalks; a true hidden gem just a stone’s throw from your door!— Vanderbilt Properties, LLC
