194 Adams Street presents a compelling buy-and-build development opportunity in the heart of Nonantum, one of Newton’s most sought-after neighborhoods. This fully cleared site will be SOLD WITH A BUILDING PERMIT for five residential units, secured through a special permit, offering a streamlined path to construction and reduced entitlement risk. Proposed plans include three 3-bed, 3-bath townhomes ranging from 1,965–1,983 square feet, along with two 2-bed, 2-bath flats of approximately 904 square feet each, all with direct elevator access from the garage. Located between Washington and Watertown Streets, the property offers convenient access to the Mass Pike (east to downtown Boston, west to Route 95/128), Newton Corner, and the MBTA commuter rail. This accessible location supports strong rental and resale potential near retail, dining, and major employment hubs. Seller will consider offers with buyer concessions.
