The architect’s vision for this exceptional 2025 residence was to preserve the timeless elegance of Georgian Revival architecture while reimagining the floor plan for contemporary living. The result is a beautifully balanced home with sun-filled, visually connected spaces that flow seamlessly to outdoor terraces, gardens, a 15' x 38' pool, and cabana. The design thoughtfully combines beauty and functionality, pairing classic architectural details with innovative building systems and energy-efficient technology. Distinctive elements include graciously proportioned rooms, symmetry, finely crafted millwork, a red-brick Georgian façade with limestone accents, French doors with transom windows, fireplaces with custom surrounds, and expansive wrap-around terraces. The result is a timeless yet thoroughly modern home—warm, inviting, and designed for effortless everyday living and entertaining, with exceptional connectivity between the interior and outdoors. Set in one of Newton’s most sought-after locations, the property is just steps from Newton Centre, minutes from The Street at Chestnut Hill, and approximately 15 minutes from Boston.

Newton Centre, located between Chestnut Hill and Waban, is a residential and commercial Newton neighborhood with a walkable village center and Green Line access. The neighborhood’s character concentrates at Centre Street and Beacon Street, where cafés, independent shops, and sidewalk patios cluster around the trolley stop. Pillars include the Newton Free Library, the New Art Center, and the West Suburban YMCA. Early-20th-century Colonials and Tudors line leafy streets, with pocket parks and school grounds breaking up the blocks. Crystal Lake and nearby trails add a nature-forward counterpoint to the village bustle. Dining and errands orbit the compact Centre Street corridor, while the D branch keeps downtown Boston within reach.
