Get the best of both the old and new world with period charm, a spacious, serene backyard, seasonal views of The Links at Mass Golf, and a list of recent, permitted updates providing peace of mind for years to come. This 1890 Norton home pairs thoughtful design - crown moldings, doorknobs, and other hardware chosen to match the era - alongside several major updates already handled. Located minutes from Wheaton College, Norton Country Club, highways, and the commuter rail.The first floor features wide-plank flooring, an eat-in kitchen with granite countertops, a full bath, laundry, and the living and dining rooms. Upstairs, find two bedrooms and a large, luxurious bathroom - converted from the original third bedroom (assessor's record still reflects the original 3 bed/1 bath layout) - featuring a stand-up shower, clawfoot soaking tub, and a walk-in closet. One bedroom has recently installed wide-board, face-nailed flooring, echoing authentic 19th-century materials. The home provides storage at every turn, from walk-in closets to two sheds (8x12 and 12x15).Recent work and updates include new lally columns and footings (Certificate of Completion 2/2026), a new 275-gallon oil tank (11/2025), a whole-home generator hookup, a full vinyl siding replacement (2021), and a passed Title 5 inspection with no conditions (9/2025).Backyard features include a large back deck, a stone patio with a built-in fire pit, a fully fenced yard, and a nearly 3/4-acre lot backing up to the golf course. A rare chance to get the best of both worlds - Norton's history, with today's peace of mind. One year home warranty included.
