About this home

JUST COMPLETED! Set in coveted West Newton Hill, this newly constructed residence pairs the enduring elegance of classic brick architecture with a distinctly contemporary sensibility. Inside, richly layered finishes, custom millwork, and carefully considered architectural details create interiors defined by warmth, proportion, and craftsmanship. Gracious living and dining rooms transition into a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring premium appliances, inset cabinetry, a dramatic waterfall island, scullery, and walk-in pantry. The adjoining family room, anchored by a fireplace and custom built-ins, overlooks landscaped grounds and a covered patio, while floor-to-ceiling windows envelop the breakfast area in natural light. A versatile first-floor suite or office with patio access, generous mudroom, and heated garage complete the main level. Upstairs, four ensuite bedrooms include a private primary retreat distinguished by a fireplace, custom built-ins, beverage bar, luxurious bath, walk-in closet, and private balcony. The finished lower level extends the living space with a lounge, bar, guest suite, and gym.

What do these numbers mean?

DESE accountability percentiles (1–99) compare schools administering similar assessments, using up to two years of indicators. These are not test scores out of 100 or GreatSchools 1–10 ratings. Progress toward targets is a separate state measure. Consider programs, support services and your child’s needs as well.

School names link to available school or district websites.
