Classic Victorian charm in the heart of Needham Center. Circa 1890, this gracious Victorian seamlessly blends timeless architectural character with a flexible, inviting floor plan and an unbeatable Needham Center location. A welcoming entry hall leads to a formal living room adorned with decorative moldings and a spacious dining room featuring a fireplace, built-in china cabinet, and elegant crown molding. The open-concept kitchen and family room create the heart of the home, with vaulted ceilings, Corian countertops, stainless steel appliances, and sliders opening to a large deck overlooking an expansive, level lot and detached 2 car garage - an exceptional setting for entertaining, relaxing, and enjoying outdoor living. An awning provides welcome shade on the deck, while a half bath, laundry room, and convenient mudroom complete the main level. The beautiful turned staircase leads to the second floor, offering three bedrooms, a dedicated office, and a full bath. The third floor provides an entire guest suite with a comfortable sitting room, two additional bedrooms, and a full bath. This versatile level offers exciting potential to create a spectacular private primary suite or a wonderful retreat for guests, extended family, or au pair living. Many important updates have already been completed, while the home's remaining cosmetic opportunities allow the next owner to bring out its full glory and make it truly their own. With ample off street parking, 763 Webster is ideally situated in the heart of Needham Center, just a short stroll to shops, restaurants, the high school, commuter rail, St. Joseph's Church and School, and minutes to major highways. This is a special opportunity to own a substantial Victorian home with character, space, and tremendous potential in one of Needham's most desirable locations. Open House Sunday 12:30-2
