In late 2007 Steinmetz Real Estate Professionals brought to market a charming four‑bedroom condo occupying the second and third floors of a converted Victorian two‑family on one of Newtonville’s prettiest streets. Listed for $649,000 on November 29, 2007, the home attracted interest for its blend of historic character and modern finishes. After 225 days on the market it sold on October 1, 2008 for $598,500, offering tremendous value in a desirable Newtonville location.
Inside, the 2,940‑square‑foot residence features a brand‑new kitchen with cherry cabinetry, granite counters, stainless‑steel appliances and ceramic tile flooring. A spacious family room provides a comfortable gathering space, while oversized bedrooms on the third level deliver generous proportions rarely found in condominium living. Two full baths and a half bath accommodate family and guests, and updated systems include central heat and hot‑water radiators fueled by natural gas.
The condo combines the sunny charm of a Victorian with the convenience of modern updates. Large windows invite abundant light, and the shared yard offers space for play and gardening. Located near Newtonville’s shops, restaurants and commuter rail, the home is also close to schools and playgrounds. Residents enjoy easy access to major highways and public transportation, making this property an outstanding value for buyers seeking space and convenience in Newton.
