Some houses just have a story behind them. This one has a real one, and papers to back it up. Built in 1952 and set on just over 3 acres in the city of Newton, this mid-century modern brick home has stayed in one family's care since Dr. and Mrs. Frank Jones first called it home. Their name is still on a 1957 blueprint kept with the property, drawn by the architecture and landscape firm Tashiro and Bolick out of Hickory, for the conservatory that still stands on the land today. That kind of documented history is hard to find, and it makes this place more than just another listing. Inside, you'll find 4 bedrooms and 3.5 baths spread across 3,626 square feet. The primary bedroom has its own full bath. Two more bedrooms share a jack and jill bath between them. And a guest bedroom/maid or butler suite, set up like its own private suite, has a full bath all its own, good for visiting family, a grown child home for a while, or anyone who needs their own space under this roof. A half bath sits right in the middle of the home near the living room and library, so guests never have far to go. Speaking of the library, it's a full room of its own, a real spot for books, quiet work, or just a place to close the door for a while. Walk into the foyer and you're greeted by a water feature built right into the entrance, a first impression you won't find in many homes on the market today. Down the main hallway, a cedar lined coat closet keeps things smelling fresh and helps protect what you store there. The living room is where this house really shows off. Picture windows line the room, framing the landscaping outside like a piece of art you never have to hang. A two sided fireplace sits right between the expansive living room and dining room, warming the room from both angles. The kitchen comes with a gas chef's stove, the kind of feature that gets real cooks excited. Radiant heat runs through the floors, and each side of the house has its own separate heating and cooling system, so everybody can set the temperature the way they like it. Part of the basement has been finished and heated, giving you even more living space, while the rest holds a woodworking shop ready for whoever loves working with their hands. Step outside and you've got three separate porches to choose from, depending on the light or the season. There's a masonry garage and built in irrigation system, to maintain the mature landscaping. And then there's the conservatory itself, a gas powered greenhouse made of metal and glass, standing since the 1950s and tied straight back to that original Tashiro and Bolick blueprint. This is a rare chance to own a piece of Newton's architectural history, cared for by one family for decades, with the paperwork to prove where it came from.
