Discover the perfect blend of modern luxury and convenience in this stunning, fully renovated 3-bedroom apartment, available for an immediate move-in or a December 1st start. Nestled within a meticulously maintained three-family home with long-term neighbors, this one-level residence delivers a peaceful community vibe in Newton’s highly desirable Auburndale Village. Enjoy the convenience of two entry points. The front entrance leads to your two exclusive off-street parking spots, making arrivals entirely seamless. If you prefer a more private retreat, step through the back entrance to find your own exclusive private porch—the perfect spot for morning coffee, weekend lounging, and enjoying the fresh New England air. The true heart of this home is the gorgeous, fully updated eat-in kitchen, which features sleek granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, premium gas cooking for the home chef, and a clever hidden pantry for organization. The layout comfortably accommodates a full-sized dining table, making it ideal for both quiet weekday meals and entertaining guests. Step into the inviting living room, which showcases soaring high ceilings that maximize natural light and a charming decorative fireplace that serves as a beautiful historic focal point for the space. With central AC keeping you cool during the warm summer months, the highly functional one-level floor plan offers three distinct bedrooms: a grand, oversized primary bedroom; a comfortable medium-sized bedroom; and a cozy smaller bedroom perfectly suited for a dedicated home office or a flexible roommate dynamic. The full bathroom is clean, boasting a granite-topped vanity with storage and a classic tub/shower combination. Location is truly everything, and this property puts you right in the center of it all. You are a stone’s throw away from Newton’s historic Carriage Lane and moments from the Auburndale commuter rail station, local restaurants, and vibrant shopping districts. With swift, easy access to major highways, your daily commute will be entirely stress-free. When it is time to unwind, you will love the close proximity to beautiful public parks and scenic walking trails. We know pets are family too, so a single dog or cat will be warmly considered on a case-by-case basis. Do not miss this rare opportunity to secure a rental in one of Newton's most convenient neighborhoods!
