About this home

Pride of ownership shines through in this expansive home on the Newton Line. First time offered in nearly 40 years. Large 3 BR and 3BA with spacious, sun-filled kitchen. Lovely stained glass in foyer and much of the original detail and charm remains throughout. Within easy walk to all amenities, shopping and Moody Street restaurants. Newer windows. Many updates. 3 additional rooms on 3rd floor with no heat. Hardwood flooring under carpet on top floors. Efficient natural gas heating. Set back from the street means privacy galore. Brand new hot water heater. Very close to public transportation and routes 95, 2 and Mass Pike. Taxes reflect residential exemption. Superior investment opportunity. Ready for new owner.
