    What's special

    This lovingly maintained West Newton home is not a drive by. Most of the heavy lifting has been done by the present owners including recently painted exterior, newer roof/windows/doors, solar panels and updated bathrooms. Plenty of space for home offices or first floor bedroom both with easy access to a freshly updated first floor bathroom. Spacious kitchen with plenty of cabinet space flows nicely to an outdoor deck and back yard oasis complete with koi pond. Completely fenced in yard allows for a pet space and an entertaining space. Wooded back yard provides additional privacy not typically found in a city location. Two good sized bedrooms with hardwood floors share another bright full bathroom. Three split ac/heat units, two on the first and another on the second floor provide cooling during those hot summer days. Less than 1/4 mile to public transportation. Boys and Girls Club nearby with opportunities for all interests.

    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.
