Property description
Some homes speak to you from the moment you arrive. They say “welcome” with their timeless curb appeal. They give you an inviting feeling as you step into the foyer and are greeted by a combination of charm, character and tasteful upgrades. They are light and bright, with warm hardwoods. They feature an updated white kitchen with stainless appliances and shiplap ceiling which flows into a traditional dining room with wainscoting and period molding. They beckon you to relax in the living room with fireplace and built-ins. They provide connection to a sunlit home office. They offer the convenience of a remodeled main floor full bath. They have 2nd floors with 3 bedrooms and another full bath. Some homes provide a finished basement with flex spaces and room to grow. They boast a backyard oasis with an inground pool for summer entertaining and a convenient 2 car garage. Some homes offer all this while being located in the highly desirable town of Needham near the train and town forest.
