Home Buying

A midcentury modern raised ranch in Newton is listed for $1.1 million, but it needs love

With its stone exterior and fireplaces, curvy cabinetry, and low-pitched roof, the home is the epitome of the architectural design.

This raised ranch has a basement rec room that would delight any “Brady Bunch” fan and features that would thrill devotees of mid-century modern design.

But the five-bedroom, three-bath Newton home, listed for $1,179,000, needs work. It “offers tremendous opportunity to renovate to your specifications,” according to the listing by the Stephen Cohen Team at Keller Williams Realty Boston Metro.

With its stone exterior and fireplaces, sleek-yet-curvy cabinetry, and low-pitched roof, 44 Nardell Road is the epitome of the popular architectural design. Built in 1960 on 0.24 of an acre, the home offers mirrored walls, central air, a bedroom and full bath on the lower level, a sunroom, a master with an en-suite bath, and two fireplaces clad in stone. The two-car garage is tucked underneath.
