This home has been lovingly maintained by the same family for the past four decades and is ready for the next owner. Enter into the bright sunroom with newly finished hardwood floors that leads to the front to back living room with fireplace and hardwoods waiting to be uncovered. Then into the dining room with gleaming hardwood floors and an original built-in china cabinet. The kitchen was updated in 2013 with newer appliances and good counter space. Take the enchanting staircase to the second floor to find three bedrooms, a full bath, and more covered hardwood floors. A lovely screen porch overlooks the level backyard, and detached garage with driveway parking for 3-4 rounds out the property. Furnace was new in 2014. This neighborhood is tucked away within a half mile of West Newton with easy access to the Commuter Rail, movie theater, stores, restaurants, and major routes in & out of Boston.
