    What's special

    Super great location on a side street in the Nonantum/West Newton area off Cailfornia Street. This 3 bedroom cape is built on a double lot on a quiet street that leads to the woods alongside the Charles River. The walking / bike trail runs along the river below. The house has a large fireplaced living room and it boasts a second fireplace in the basement. The basement has a built-in bar and sitting area to go with the fireplace. The kitchen may need to be updated but next to it is a beautiful and unique office/den area which can stay as an office or be converted to expand the kitchen. The detached garage has a screened porch which faces the back of the house and the driveway is long enough for 3 or 4 cars not including the garage.The side lot is currently being used as a garden and has a lot of potential for many other uses. Open Houses on Saturday from 12:00-2:00P.M. and Sunday, September 8th from 11:00A.M. to 3:00P.M. with offers due by midnight on Monday, September 9th.
