About this home

Calling all renovators, builders, and ambitious 1st Time Buyers!! Classic Brick Colonial circa 1929 has great bones, needs renovation/expansion to show its full potential. Plenty of character and space on 3 levels, plus additional living space in basement. Hardwood floors, first floor just liberated from older w/w carpet, will finish beautifully, and interior repairs/cosmetics, updates to kitchen and baths will also be needed. This welcoming home is sited on an exceptionally deep lot (18,750 sq ft) that rises gently in the back on two different levels. Think of outdoor patio, tree swing, wild flowers, fruit trees and play space in a nicely private setting. The hiking trail named Aqueduct Trail is also directly accessible above the rear line of the property. Located near both Newton and Wellesley, find convenient access to Rtes 9,16 & 95, Commuter Rail at Needham Heights, and Green Line T stops at Riverside and Newton Highlands. Showings by appointment only begin noon Friday, June 12
