Description

In front of this stately brick Colonial near the top of West Newton Hill stand two splendid copper beech trees whose classic symmetry echoes that of the Wyatt windows gracing the façade. Through the large foyer you enter a beamed ceiling living room with gas fireplace and then a gracious dining room. The recently renovated kitchen with cherry cabinets and granite counter tops amply accommodates family cooking. From its work area a wall of glass windows overlooks the rear deck and garden beyond.

Through the large foyer you enter a beamed ceiling living room with gas fireplace and then a gracious dining room. The recently renovated kitchen with cherry cabinets and granite counter tops amply accommodates family cooking. From its work area a wall of glass windows overlooks the rear deck and garden beyond. Next to the kitchen, the family room, with its cathedral ceiling and southern exposure through large windows, could easily double as a first-floor master suite. On the second floor are the master suite with marble bath, two other bedrooms, family bath, and a rather special architect-designed home office space with built-in filing cabinets, bookshelves, and computer area. Quality materials throughout.
