Waban! Beautifully sited on a tree-lined side street, this meticulously maintained, move-in-ready 8-room, 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath Colonial blends classic New England charm with thoughtful updates and an exceptional location. A timeless blue-gray exterior with crisp white trim, contrasting shutters, mature trees, and professionally curated gardens creates wonderful curb appeal. A spacious foyer welcomes you to a gracious front-to-back living room with gas fireplace, elegant dining room, inviting family room, and updated eat-in kitchen. Just beyond, a tranquil screened porch with vaulted ceiling and skylight overlooks the lush gardens and backyard-an idyllic setting for relaxing or entertaining. Upstairs are three bedrooms, a study area, and a versatile office or nursery adjoining the primary bedroom. The primary suite also features a walk-in closet and updated bath with a new tiled walk-in shower. The walk-out lower level offers direct access to the patio, backyard, and garage, plus laundry, generous storage, and workshop space. Numerous improvements include a new roof and boiler in 2024, freshly painted interior and exterior, and updates throughout. Enjoy an outstanding Waban location near Waban Square, Newton Highlands, and Upper Falls, Angier Elementary School, Cold Spring Park, Hemlock Gorge, and the Quinobequin Trail along the Charles River. Convenient to both Waban and Eliot Green Line D stations, Mass General Brigham Newton-Wellesley Hospital, Route 9, the Mass Pike, and Route 95. A wonderful combination of charm, condition, setting, and convenience in one of Newton's most desirable villages.
