Perched atop a breezy hill with views stretching all the way to Boston, this 1910 late Victorian home delivers authentic character with an easy, welcoming flow across three finished levels. Inside, the main floor welcomes you with high ceilings, rich hardwood floors, a practical foyer and mudroom, and a spirited, spacious eat-in kitchen alongside comfortable living and dining spaces. The upper two levels also feature high-velocity heating and cooling. The top floor has three bedrooms, and a cleanly renovated modern bath, highlighted by a primary bedroom with custom closet systems and rustic barn doors. Downstairs, high ceilings and polished concrete floors define a walkout lower level complete with its own efficient mini-split heat pump, a full shower bath, dedicated laundry, and a cozy wood-burning stove that makes the family room an effortless gathering spot or private guest suite. Step outside to an open-air back porch overlooking an extraordinary fenced hillside framed by terraced gardens, relaxed outdoor lounge spaces, a greenhouse, and a secure concrete storage room tucked beneath the upper pad. Up top, an open patio and parking for two to three vehicles offer prime front-row seats to the skyline. The location is tough to beat-just shy of a mile to Newtonville center, blocks from the YMCA, Cabot and Bigelow fields, and the local dog park, with quick, easy access to the Mass Pike.
