Just 3 blocks from the downtown square, this home has everything you need plus old-fashioned charm you’ll fall in love with! One of the standout features is the double lot, offering space for your vision. A front porch welcomes you into a light-filled interior with original woodwork, hardwood floors, and upgrades throughout - including an updated kitchen with white cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, refreshed light fixtures, and newer carpet in bedrooms. The loft can function as a primary bedroom, playroom, office, or flex area. The basement has two separate living areas, storage, laundry, and a 3/4 bath. The shared driveway easily accommodates up to 3 vehicles, and the attached garage is perfect for storage or a small vehicle. Buyers seeking a larger garage will appreciate the ample space on the additional parcel to add a detached garage or shop, if desired. The fully fenced yard creates endless possibilities for gardening, pets, and entertaining on the patio. Can you picture evenings around the firepit after walking home from dinner or events on the square? With a recently replaced furnace (July 2024), a walkable location, and room to grow, this Newton charmer offers solid value in a great spot!
