Property Description
Located on one of Newton Highland's nicest tree-lined side streets, this 1898 Victorian has been in the same family for over 60 years. Beautifully preserved with gorgeous original millwork and old-world detail. Well proportioned entertaining rooms with tall ceilings. Three fireplaces on the first floor. Open-plan eat-in kitchen with half bathroom and laundry gives access to deck and lovely level rear yard. Double parlor works well as family room and living room. Wrap-around front porch has ample outdoor space for outdoor dining. Second floor has four spacious bedrooms and one large bathroom with separate tub and shower. Third floor configured as an in-law apartment with separate entrance, but easily reconfigures to be the third living-level of this single family. Unfinished lower level has good ceiling height with plenty of storage and utility areas. Over-sized 2-car garage. Property located 1.5 blocks from MBTA Green line, shops and restaurants. Rare find with enormous potential.
