Classic 4 bed 2.5 bath colonial in fantastic neighborhood. As you enter the open foyer, this home exudes warmth and charm. It is a happy home where the current owner has resided since 1975, raised a family and now wants to pass it along to the next owners to make their own memories. The seller has been a diligent steward and has maintained, improved and cared for this home. As expected of this vintage, you will find hardwood floors, corner bedrooms, built ins, butler's pantry, exquisite moldings & fireplace, all exuding character and charm. Unexpected are the solar panels, perfectly placed on the southeast facing roof and the third-floor office with 2 walls of built in shelves and a skylight. Enjoy your morning coffee in the sunroom with 3 walls of windows. The finished basement has ample space for a playroom, family room, or home gym as well as a separate laundry room and plenty of additional storage. Located on one of Needham's "ladder streets" walk to town center, schools and train.
