Property description
Look no further! Single family one level living in a wonderful Needham neighborhood close to Babson and Volante Farms. An expanded ranch with a large private fenced in gorgeous level lot, cathedral family room with full bath and deck off sliders, living room with fireplace, central air, and more! Lot is zoned 1 acre minimum but this is non-conforming so could be a tear down for the right developer. Owner has done many updates including making it handicapped accessible. Finished rooms in the basement for office, hobby and a gym! Come see for yourself. You won't be disappointed. OH Canceled for 6.21.15.
