About this home
Welcome to 12 Ruth Avenue, a beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2-bath home situated on approximately 0.65 acres in Newton. From the moment you step inside, you will appreciate the comfortable layout, inviting atmosphere, and thoughtful combination of classic character and modern improvements. This home offers plenty of space for everyday living, entertaining guests, working from home, or simply relaxing at the end of the day.
Beautiful hardwood floors add warmth and timeless character throughout the home. The living area is centered around a traditional wood-burning fireplace, creating a cozy gathering place for family and friends. Whether you are enjoying a quiet evening at home, hosting a holiday celebration, or watching the game with guests, this space is designed to feel comfortable and welcoming.
The kitchen combines style, convenience, and functionality. It features stainless-steel Whirlpool appliances, generous cabinet storage, and soft-close cabinet doors and drawers. The durable LifeProof flooring provides an attractive, low-maintenance surface that is well suited for daily use. There is ample space for preparing meals, storing kitchen essentials, and gathering together. The stainless-steel appliances complement the cabinetry and give the kitchen a clean, updated appearance.
The home includes three comfortable bedrooms, offering flexibility for a variety of needs. Use the additional rooms for family members, overnight guests, a home office, hobby room, exercise space, or a combination of uses. Spacious walk-in closets provide valuable storage and help keep everyday belongings organized. With two full bathrooms, the home offers added convenience for both residents and guests. LifeProof flooring in the bathrooms provides durability while maintaining a coordinated look with the kitchen.
Window shades have already been installed, saving the new owner time and expense while providing privacy from the first day. Throughout the home, the thoughtful features and practical updates make it easy to settle in and begin enjoying the property without taking on a long list of immediate projects.
The approximately 0.65-acre lot provides room to enjoy the outdoors, entertain, garden, play, or simply relax in your own surroundings. The property offers a welcome sense of space while remaining manageable for routine care and maintenance. It is an ideal setting for anyone who wants more outdoor room than a typical neighborhood lot can provide.
This home delivers the features many buyers are searching for: three bedrooms, two bathrooms, hardwood floors, a wood-burning fireplace, stainless-steel appliances, soft-close cabinetry, walk-in closets, durable flooring, installed window shades, and a generous lot. The combination of indoor comfort and outdoor space makes the property suitable for first-time buyers, growing households, downsizers, or anyone looking for a comfortable place to call home.
Every room offers an opportunity to make the home your own. Arrange the living area around the fireplace, create a dedicated office or guest room, enjoy meals prepared in the updated kitchen, and take advantage of the additional storage provided by the walk-in closets. The layout is functional for everyday life while still offering the flexibility to change as your needs evolve.
The warm hardwood flooring and traditional fireplace bring character to the home, while the stainless-steel Whirlpool appliances, LifeProof flooring, and soft-close cabinetry provide the modern conveniences today’s buyers appreciate. These features come together to create a property that feels established, comfortable, and ready for its next chapter.
If you have been searching for a move-in-ready home with character, practical updates, abundant storage, and nearly two-thirds of an acre, 12 Ruth Avenue deserves your attention.
