About this home

Nicely tucked away on an amazing parcel in the sought-after Ledges Estate area, this eleven-room, two and one-half bathroom residence, with Arts & Crafts influences, is surrounded by woodlands, a man-made waterfall, and lovely gardens. The rooms are bright and airy with high ceilings, wonderful natural light and gorgeous original detail. One of the highlights is the spectacular deck overlooking the wooded lot with a canopy of trees, outcroppings of pudding stone ledge, and an abundance of natural beauty. Set on a one-third acre lot, and conveniently located within one-half mile to Newton Centre “T” station, shops, and restaurants. A very special location offering seclusion and privacy yet only minutes from everything Newton Centre and Chestnut Hill has to offer. This is a wonderful opportunity to make this your own private paradise in a neighborhood of spectacular homes.
