Property Description

Step into the character of this beautifully restored 3-story home on a desirable corner lot in Newton! Offering 2,243 sq. ft. of finished living space, this home features 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a 1-car garage, and an extensive list of improvements that provide modern comfort while preserving its timeless craftsmanship. Original details remain throughout, including the swinging kitchen door, built-in dining buffet, rich wood trim, beautiful staircase, and butler's pantry. Nearly everything else has been updated, including new interior plumbing, Romex electrical wiring and service from the street, drywall, insulation, exhaust fans and venting, flooring, cabinets, countertops, and appliances. The A/C is brand new in 2026, while the mid-2000s furnace was first put into service in late 2025. Portions of the ductwork are new, with remaining runs cleaned. Outside you'll find a new driveway and sidewalks, durable steel siding, a newer hail-resistant roof, and custom triple-pane vinyl windows offering excellent efficiency and durability. If you love the character of an older home but want the peace of mind of extensive modern updates, this one delivers an impressive combination of history, craftsmanship, and nearly everything new!
