    Modern styleLandscaped lotProfessionally designedGreat spaceHome gymNew doorsFantastic views
    This stately Tudor home was beautifully and masterfully renovated with the finest of materials and craftsmanship. 5 bedrooms, 3 full baths and 2 half baths, with over 3500 sqft of living area plus a spacious 2-car garage. On a level, fully fenced-in and landscaped lot, this home was professionally designed with modern style and artisanship. In 2016, a gorgeous mudroom, eat-in chef’s kitchen resplendent with fantastic views of the lush backyard, dining room, powder room and step-down family room were constructed, all windows replaced, and all bathrooms remodeled. In 2020, a newly designed first-floor library w/custom built-ins, completely rebuilt main staircase, and new doors were added. The second floor offers 5 well-proportioned bedrooms, including a lovely master suite with walk-in closet, 4 other bedrooms, and three full baths. The lower level offers great space for a media room and a home gym, and ample storage. Ward School, Newton North, minutes to the Pike and downtown Boston.
