The second floor provides flexibility with 4 bedrooms, 2 full baths (one ensuite with potential to add a third), and the option to use as a 1-bedroom apartment-like suite with high ceilings, a balcony and private entry. The partially finished lower level offers more space for customization. Convenient to major highways and just minutes from Boston, Logan Airport, and Newton-Wellesley Hospital.
