At 152 Adams Street, the Neponset River is your personal canvas—sunrises, seasons, and sky, all unfolding outside your windows. Perched on a 1.38-acre parcel of gently sloping grounds, this Milton Hill estate is one of the rare properties to offer panoramic vistas. A full-scale renovation in 2017 overhauled the home’s systems—electrical/plumbing/HVAC/building envelope—while preserving its soul through curated updates, including thoughtful floor plan enhancements and interior finishes, like windows to frame every sunrise and custom millwork that whispers of the craftsmanship of a bygone era. The result is a home that balances formality with the casual expectations of today's living, creating a natural flow for both quiet mornings and large-scale entertaining. Outside, a sprawling lawn leads to the river's edge, and natural treeline creates a serene enclosure. Yet the home is intimately connected to town life, Milton Village and Lower Mills shopping and dining are but a short stroll away
