Our Take

12 Scenic View Drive in Newtown is a four-bedroom raised ranch with one full bath and one half bath. The main level has hardwood floors throughout, a naturally lit living area, and an eat-in kitchen with landscape views. Three bedrooms and the full bath are on that level; the finished basement adds a fourth bedroom, a wood-burning fireplace, and sliders to the yard. The property also includes a one-car garage, new septic and leaching fields, a new driveway, a freshly painted exterior, and an additional .34-acre lot.
