Deck overlooking the manicured yard and detached two-car garage. Second floor offers four bedrooms including a primary suite and laundry. Third floor with two bedrooms, full bath and kitchenette ideal for guests or in-law space. Finished walk-out lower level. Walk to schools, Newtonville shops, restaurants and commuter rail. A must see!
