This beautifully maintained Victorian combines timeless elegance with generous proportions, set on one of Newton’s most desirable streets—peaceful, convenient, and surrounded by distinguished homes. The expansive chef’s kitchen is a standout feature, complete with a commercial-grade stove, two dishwashers, two sinks, and a large island—ideal for gatherings or everyday use. High ceilings and dedicated rooms throughout the main level offer a classic floorplan with flexibility, including interchangeable living and dining spaces to suit your lifestyle. The second floor offers 3 bedrooms and a full bath with laundry. The primary suite was created by combining two bedrooms into a spacious retreat w/ a private bath. The third floor provides versatile space for a teen suite, guest quarters, or au pair setup, with its own entrance, porch, and treetop views.Built in the 1890s, the home showcases fine period details, including a stained-glass window, leaded glass, and a gracious wraparound porch
