Description

Step into the character of this beautifully restored 3-story home on a desirable corner lot in Newton! Offering 2,243 sq. ft. of finished living space, this home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 1-car garage, and an extensive list of improvements that provide modern comfort while preserving its timeless craftsmanship. Original details remain throughout, including the swinging kitchen door, built-in dining buffet, rich wood trim, beautiful staircase, and butler's pantry.
