    What's special

    Beautiful Arts and Crafts colonial in the center of Needham. The front porch is a wonderful place to sit and look out over the gardens and the yard beyond. Inside there is ample living space for everyone. The living room has a wood burning fireplace, an awesome window seat for reading, and the door to the front porch. The family room has floor to ceiling bookcases and windows on three sides. The updated kitchen has maple cabinets, stone counters and stainless appliances. Off the dining room, through the two glass doors, is the sunroom where you can get away and enjoy a cup of coffee anytime of day. The house gets excellent light giving it a very welcoming feel. The laundry is in the basement next to the office/playroom. The gardens clearly have gotten a lot of love over the years. In back there is a patio for entertaining. Quiet, peaceful, and yet close to town center and commuter rail. Commuter Open House Thursday 5-7pm.
