An inviting farmer's porch welcomes you to this lovingly maintained Colonial home. The heart of the home encompasses an updated kitchen that flows into an expansive dining area and family room. This open and functional floor plan is accented by gleaming hardwood floors and an abundance of windows. A convenient mudroom is tucked away. Upstairs is a luxurious primary suite with a sitting area and fireplace. You will be impressed by its sun-filled, spa-like bathroom and dual walk-in closets. Down the hallway are three generously sized bedrooms accompanied by a full bathroom. The finished lower level offers a versatile playroom, recreation space, or potential home office. Outside, enjoy a private fenced backyard with a gorgeous bluestone patio. Ideally located near Needham Center, this exceptional home provides easy access to shops, restaurants, parks, top-rated schools, major commuter routes, and the commuter rail into Boston.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 3,084 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 8,276 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.
