Location key for Needham home

- By MIRIAM SCHWARTZ

Waiting for you in the kind of neighborho­od you’re used to seeing on a feel-good TV show, the adorable bungalow-style Cape Cod home with dormer window at 28 Thorpe Road in Needham instantly charms you from the curb.

Tucked into an establishe­d street flanked by evergreens and mature trees, the home, built in 1924, has several period details, and many modern updates.

In addition to the warm and welcoming neighborho­od, 28 Thorpe Road is located in an area of Needham that’s absolutely ideal.

Just a skip away from Interstate 95 and accessible to the many tech and other businesses headquarte­red in Needham, the home is also located within walking distance of Trader Joe’s, Starbucks, and local schools of the highly desirable Mitchell School District. Nearby on the other side of I-95, you’ll find Nahanton Park and Cutler Park Reservatio­n. Offered at only $629,000, the home is a tremendous value for the Needham area.

With four bedrooms and two bathrooms over 1,625 square feet, the home, renovated in 1997, is spacious enough to be comfortabl­e while keeping it cozy.

A cute front porch entrance takes you into the living room, with handsome, large fireplace, and a dining room with a beautiful built-in china cabinet. You’ll also find an office overlookin­g the backyard, the first bedroom, and the home’s updated, modern kitchen with lots of cabinet space. Upstairs, the three other bedrooms are roomy and perfect for a new family, or a family that’s downsizing but still

wanting space to spread out.

Outside, the generous, level backyard features tall, shady trees, gardens and room for outdoor living and entertaini­ng.

Don’t miss the open house hours tomorrow from noon to 2 p.m.
