Located in one of Newton’s hidden gem neighborhoods on Islington Peninsula in Auburndale, this location is perfect for those wishing for proximity to Boston and Cambridge but also seclusion from the hustle and bustle of a city with the Charles River, woods, and open green space in easy walking distance. One road in/out and dead-end streets throughout the neighborhood create a space with essentially zero street traffic—perfect for those with small children or pets. This four-bedroom home was modernized during a full remodel in 1995 with bedrooms now spread across the second and newer third floor—perfect for those wishing for privacy or a quiet home office. The home also features new bathrooms, wood floors throughout the main living area, central air, a wrap-around farmers' porch, an attached garage, and other modern amenities making this home move-in ready with the opportunity for expansion or to “make it yours”.
