Property Description
A rare opportunity to acquire one of Newton’s most distinctive residences, offered as a fully renovated, to-be-completed estate. Set behind gates on 0.88 acres of private, park-like grounds, the property will offer more than 9,000 square feet across four levels and 10 bedrooms when complete. Blending turn-of-the-century character with modern amenities, the home will be completed by the seller, a builder with more than 50 years of experience. City-approved plans reflect years of thoughtful planning while still allowing the discerning buyer to personalize select aspects of the floor plan and finishes. The transformation will preserve the home’s 1905 character, including intricate moldings, tiger oak floors, and wood-burning fireplaces, while introducing a substantial addition with an attached two-car garage, a two-bedroom ADU above, a four-stop elevator, two new kitchens, and new bathrooms throughout. The expansive lower level can be finished to the buyer’s specifications, with potential for an indoor pool, theater, gym, lounge, bar, or media space. Near Charles River Country Club and minutes from Newton Center and Chestnut Hill, the property offers convenient access to Boston while maintaining a remarkable sense of privacy and tranquility. A rare combination of historic character, significant acreage, modern infrastructure, and the opportunity to create a truly remarkable Newton estate.
