About this home

Outstanding renovated and expanded bungalow in prime Newton Highlands location! This home will captivate you, from the classic style and inviting front porch, to the open concept and flexible floor plan which brings light into the house and provides comfort and ease for contemporary living. The attention to detail is evident as you see the quality of custom cabinetry in the dining area and kitchen, with the granite island, additional custom cabinetry and pendant lighting, as well as the flow to the family room, and French doors, to the expansive 17 x 21 rear deck and spacious yard. The house has a wonderful blend of original detail and modern amenities. The 1st floor master has 2 skylights, stained glass and a thermo-massage tub. Skylights in the 2nd bedroom make an ideal in-home studio. The lower level has an in-home office with separate entrance or use as a nanny or teen suite. Walk to the T, shops, restaurants, Cold Springs Park and Crystal Lake. Showings begin on Jan 23.
