2008 build with several nice built-ins and interior design touches. Lots of attention to detail. On the corner of a busy street but large foliage has been added and maintained to hide the view and provide a noise barrier.

Oak Hill, located between Newton Centre and West Roxbury, is a residential and wooded Newton neighborhood with hillside streets and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Oak Hill Park area along Boylston Street, where ballfields, playground energy, and a steady stream of walkers set the daily rhythm. Housing leans toward mid-century colonials and capes, with newer builds tucked into curving lanes. Webster Woods adds a quiet, trail-lined edge that feels removed from the main roads. For a cultural anchor, the nearby Newton Free Library and the Newton Centre Green shape local routines beyond the neighborhood’s borders.
