    What's special

    This exceptional Arts and Crafts style bungalow is set back from the street and surrounded by fruit and flowering trees. The exterior is stucco with a beautifully maintained red tile roof and inviting front porch. One enters via a sunny foyer with doors leading to the dining room and into the living room which has beamed ceiling and a fireplace. The eat-in kitchen is older but functional with dishwasher and disposal. Most of the windows have been replaced. Completing the first floor are two bedrooms, one currently being used as a home office, and a full bathroom. The second floor consists of two very large bedrooms and an adjacent sunroom and half bathroom. A sweet yard and large two car garage complete this special property. Minutes from West Newton Square, Commuter Rails stops, Mass Pike, shops and restaurants.

    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.
