16 Harrison St, Newton, MA 02461

This home melds the charm of an 1892 Victorian with the simplicity of its more modern updates. Family gathering space is centered around a large kitchen island with lowered table for six. Three steps down lead to a family room with built-ins and a fireplace with marble hearth. Many period details include original woodwork, stained glass window, and French doors. Step out onto a deck overlooking expansive, professionally landscaped grounds. A jewel of the property is the garden, with a berm holding a weeping Japanese Maple and many evergreens. Rarely do you experience this parklike setting in an in-town location. Neighbors share the convenience of the Eliot T and being 3 blocks from the charming village of Newton Highlands, with shops, restaurants, park and outdoor spaces. Approximately 1 mile to Crystal Lake. Don't miss this gem!
