About this home

A prime opportunity to build in one of Newton Highlands’ most desirable neighborhoods. Ideal for a homeowner planning a custom residence or a builder/developer seeking a high-quality project, this property offers strong potential. The level lot spans over 8,000 sq ft with roughly 90 feet of frontage in SR3 zoning. The existing single-family home (about 1,652 sq ft, three bedrooms, two baths) has been fully gutted and is considered a teardown, providing a clean slate for new construction. Previously approved redevelopment plans may transfer to the buyer, pending resubmission and final municipal approval, streamlining the building process. Located on a quiet street yet close to Route 9, I-95, Newton Centre, conservation areas, and recreational facilities. Convenient to top-rated Newton schools including Countryside Elementary, Oak Hill Middle, and Newton South High. A distinctive opportunity to create a new home or investment in a premier Newton setting.
