About this home

Discover Bird's Hill's original farmhouse. Comprehensively renovated, enhanced, and located on a gorgeous 16,000+ sf estate-like lot, it's anything but your cookie-cutter new construction. From the moment you spot the centuries old oak tree - undeniably a Needham landmark, and possibly the town's oldest - you'll be captivated by the property's elegance and grandeur. Upon stepping inside, you'll notice all high end fixtures and finishes expected in a home of this calibre. What truly sets this gem apart is how comfortably its expansive floorplan sits on such a spacious piece of land -- 4,900 sqft of living (on 2 floors) feels only natural on such an uncommonly large property. JT Architects has masterfully designed the home to blend existing and new. Highlights include a first floor bedroom or office with en-suite, sophisticated dining room with wood burning fireplace and bar, and luxurious master wing with vaulted ceilings. The backyard is a secluded sanctuary ideal for entertaining.
