The village of Newton Highlands has custom contemporary homes, a small downtown district and several Green Line T stops. Renovated 19th-century Victorian structures and brand-new modern houses sit behind front lawn gardens with overgrown bushes. A paved multipurpose trail exists for walking and biking. A walkable shopping district features boutiques and Mediterranean eateries operating from the first floor of 1800s rowhouses. Newton Highlands is an idyllic New England suburban neighborhood 10 minutes outside downtown Boston. “Newton is a great town to live in,” says Ryan McCormick, manager at Metro Realty Corp. in nearby Brookline. “It’s very family-oriented with good schools. That’s a lot of the appeal. It’s also close to the city and more affordable than Brookline.”
There are many shops along Lincoln Street for people to browse.
Beautifully maintained Victorians can be found all throughout Newton Highlands.
