961 Dedham St, Newton, MA 02459

Set far back from the street at the end of a long private driveway, this enchanting three bedroom, one and one half bathroom Gambrel-style Colonial has been thoughtfully updated. The first floor features a gracious entry foyer; a spacious living room; an elegant dining room with built-in china cabinets flanking a window seat; an inviting, modern eat-in-kitchen with granite countertops and stainless steel appliances; and an updated half bathroom. A small mudroom off the kitchen makes for the perfect access point to the fenced, level backyard, while the enclosed three season porch serves as a great bonus storage or play space. The second level offers three generously proportioned bedrooms and a chic bathroom with modern fixtures and lighting, a tumbled stone floor, and a claw foot tub. Numerous updates over the last ten years include the roof, windows, kitchen, baths, and some electrical and plumbing upgrades. Lovely neighborhood near Memorial Spaulding school and playground.
