About this home

Sprawling ranch in a prime Newton (Waban) setting! Freshly repainted, with new hardwood floors in living and dining areas. Offering over 2,400 sq. ft. of well-designed living, it highlights a spacious primary suite with a private nook—perfect as a study, reading corner, or creative retreat—plus two other large bedrooms and a fourth (smaller) bedroom setup as an office. A sunlit, updated kitchen with ample cabinetry and counters opens to a formal dining room, while the expansive living room and separate family room allow versatility for entertaining, relaxing, or working remotely. The interior extends to a deck that overlooks a sizable backyard—ideal for outdoor meals, play, or quiet mornings. Partially finished basement (playroom or gym). The home has central air conditioning. Situated on a peaceful, tree-lined street only one block from Zervas Elementary and close to Newton Centre, Waban Center, Whole Foods, Mass Pike, and Route 95. A rare rental opportunity in a coveted neighborhood!
