    What's special

    A great place to call home! This 2 bedroom 1 bath ranch is a great condo alternative. No walls to share! Plus extra room in the basement. This is a great first home or home to downsize into. With a little work this home could be handicapped accessible. Major remodel was done to make it open space living. New kitchen with stainless steel appliances, granite counters, and center island. New bathroom installed with beautiful tiled shower and glass door. Full basement with a partially finished family room and fireplace. Garage walkout from the basement. Sliders to a deck and covered patio. Just waiting for the new buyer to install a new hot tub. Roof replaced in 2016. Quiet side street in West Newton on a corner lot.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
