This house has provenance! Leonard Bernstein's father had this home built on one of the most beautiful streets in Newton. This is a generously sized classic colonial. Enter the foyer and walk to the right to the living room which leads to the formal dining room and out to a screened in porch through the french door. Around to the generously sized kitchen with lots of granite counters and wood cabinets. A fifth room & full bath are perfect for an in-law, guest, 2nd office or nanny. Back around the hall to the gumwood paneled office with built in bookcases on one wall. The 2nd level includes 4 bedrooms including the primary suite with walk-in closet and full bath. The walk-up attic adds to the abundant storage in the home. The basement can be used as a recreation area for the family plus storage. This is a great commuter location no matter where you travel. Easy access to Mass Pike and the express bus to the city.
