About this home

Beautifully renovated split-level ranch, offering a full master-level floor with custom finishes: The chef’s kitchen features a Wolf range, double ovens, a Viking fridge, and stone island with generous prep space. This level also includes a dining area, large living room, two bedrooms, with a shared full bath, and a mudroom with a dog wash station. A sunroom with wet bar and wine fridge separates the first from the lower level, which serves as a primary suite—with master bedroom and bath, and a spacious lounge room with a built-in corner office area and lines of bookshelves. Both levels offer exceptional storage, closet, and cabinet space. Insulation added through the Mass Save program. Lush landscaping surrounds the backyard and deck. Located near top-rated Newton schools, within walking distance of Wellesley, and just a few blocks from the major highways—but without the noise.
