Description

This breathtaking property on 1.3 landscaped acres in a prime location close to both Needham and Wellesley shopping and amenities, Babson and Wellesley College, commuter routes, and privately set back from prestigious South Street. Steps to the stunning trails along the Charles River Reservation and connected to Needham Junction by the Rail Trail. This fully renovated and significantly upgraded home feels like a little bit of Europe in New England. Reclaimed wide plank floors, tin-patterned ceiling, many built-ins, stone fireplaces and four en-suite bedrooms plus 5th bedroom/exercise room and bonus space. A sunny master suite with double bath & walk-in closet/dressing room. Gorgeous grey-and-white kitchen updated in 2017 with Rococo Quartz counters and white custom cabinetry. Stainless appliances, including a 48" 6-burner + griddle gas range, 2 beverage centers, and 2 sinks to perfect this chef's dream kitchen! Reminiscent of an old pub, the rustic stone fire-placed sitting area and eating area provide a warm and inviting feel to the kitchen. In the living room and formal dining area, a second stone fireplace and walls of glass look out to the pergola patio and expansive private yard. Perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining! Spacious home office with built-ins and separate entry. A sport court with outdoor shower & lower level game room complete this special property.

    "Living n Needham and commuting to the city is very straight forward. The rail line is dedicated to the Needham commuter rail, the line ends/originated in Needham, and there are 4 stops in the small town. I walk 5min from my house to the train and get off at back Bay to walk just another 5min to my office. Delays are limited due to the fact that this rail line only serves the Needham line."
