About This Home
As of June 2025Set in one of Newton’s most picturesque locations, this stunning contemporary lakefront home was masterfully designed and built in 2011.

The thoughtfully designed interior boasts a dramatic living room and stylish office, both with spectacular lake views, along with a sleek kitchen featuring a spacious island, Vermont slate countertops, and an eat-in area. Upstairs, the serene primary suite offers tranquil lake views from both the bedroom and bath, accompanied by three additional bedrooms, a full bath, and a laundry room. The lower level provides a comfortable family room and an entertaining room. Just a short scenic stroll to Newton Centre or Newton Highlands, this is a rare opportunity to own a one-of-a-kind lakefront property which blends design, luxury, and comfort.
