Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this 1880 Italianate Victorian in Newton Highlands is a rare home that feels as if it were built for someone and has never forgotten it. Wide plank floors run beneath soaring ceilings framed by beautiful crown molding. Pocket doors, rich woodwork, and decorative fireplaces give every room a sense of occasion. A curved staircase welcomes you at the entry, setting the tone before you’ve seen the rest. The living room flows into a bay-windowed family room and a gracious dining room with French doors. The kitchen is outfitted with granite counters, stainless appliances, and a gas stove – clean, functional, and connected to the patio/grill area. Three bedrooms are located upstairs, with a first-floor office that easily becomes a fourth, plus 2.5 modern baths. Outside, a spacious fenced yard with landscaping and a patio that earns its keep all summer. Gas heat, central A/C, and in-home laundry. Newton Highlands T-Station and Route 9 nearby.
