About this home

Some houses feel like home the minute you step in the door--this is one of them. The kind where kids grow up shooting hoops in the driveway and walking across the street to Volante Farms for a freshly prepared sandwich or a summer ice cream treat. Where Saturday mornings mean board games by the gas fireplace and movie nights are held in the basement screening room. Where the day starts with coffee on the back deck and ends with neighbors on the front porch. 876 Central Ave is a 4-bedroom, 3.5-bath contemporary colonial with 4,000+ sq ft of living space, finished lower level with play and exercise rooms, a walk-up attic for extra storage or future expansion, central AC, and an oversized 2-car garage. With hardwood floors throughout, and set far back from the road with a large private yard, this home is convenient to The Heights, Needham Center, the commuter rail, and Sunita Williams Elementary. Easy access to Newton and Wellesley and major highways. The memories are ready to be made.
