About Four

Corners

Four Corners, located between Newton Centre and Waban, is a residential and village-style Newton Center neighborhood with a walkable crossroads and leafy side streets. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at the Four Corners intersection of Beacon Street and Walnut Street, where small storefronts, cafés, and everyday services line the trolley corridor. The Street at Chestnut Hill anchors the local food scene with a polished market-and-café feel. Newton Free Library and the Newton Centre Playground add a civic, outdoorsy rhythm near Centre Street. Housing reads as classic Greater Boston: shingled Colonials, Tudors, and well-kept multifamily homes. Green space threads through nearby paths and parks, while the Green Line keeps the streetscape active without feeling hectic.
