1910

Perched atop a breezy hill with views stretching all the way to Boston, this 1910 late Victorian home delivers authentic character with an easy, welcoming flow across three finished levels. Inside, the main floor welcomes you with high ceilings, rich hardwood floors, a practical foyer and mudroom, and a spirited, spacious eat-in kitchen alongside comfortable living and dining spaces. The upper two levels also feature high-velocity heating and cooling. The top floor has three bedrooms, and a cleanly renovated modern bath, highlighted by a primary bedroom with custom closet systems and rustic barn doors. Downstairs, high ceilings and polished concrete floors define a walkout lower level complete with its own efficient mini-split heat pump, a full shower bath, dedicated laundry, and a cozy wood-burning stove that makes the family room an effortless gathering spot or private guest suite. Step outside to an open-air back porch overlooking an extraordinary fenced hillside framed by terraced gardens, relaxed outdoor lounge spaces, a greenhouse, and a secure concrete storage room tucked beneath the upper pad. Up top, an open patio and parking for two to three vehicles offer prime front-row seats to the skyline. The location is tough to beat—just shy of a mile to Newtonville center, blocks from the YMCA, Cabot and Bigelow fields, and the local dog park, with quick, easy access to the Mass Pike.

ADU Potential

Massachusetts allows one accessory dwelling unit by right in single-family zoning districts statewide (M.G.L. c. 40A §3; 760 CMR 71.00, effective Feb 2025). Estimated maximum ADU size for this property: 900 sq ft (the lesser of 900 sq ft or half the 1,960 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 2,940 sq ft.

Based on listing data, which indicates the property type — not the zoning district. Local dimensional, septic (Title 5), and historic-district requirements still apply. Not legal advice — verify with the municipality.

Estimates — not financial advice

These figures are illustrative estimates for informational purposes only — not an appraisal, valuation, or guarantee of rent, income, or returns, and not financial, tax, or investment advice. Rent is either the figure reported on the MLS listing — in-place rent that may differ from market and is not verified against the actual leases — or, where the listing reports none, an estimate from HUD Small Area Fair Market Rents, a government benchmark that may differ from actual market rent. Each figure is labelled with its source. Cap rate, NOI, and returns depend on the assumptions shown, which you can change. MLS and other third-party data may be inaccurate or out of date. Verify all figures independently and consult your own financial, tax, and legal advisors before making any investment decision.
