Newton's best buy - priced for immediate sale below assessment. A dream! As seen on TV's Chronicle, this is a historic masterpiece of scale, splendor and gorgeous grounds in one of Newton's premier locations. Stunningly gracious and spacious landmark Queen Anne Victorian, built as a luxury home/retreat for visiting international missionaries, boasts character and detail throughout. Set back on a dramatic, ultra-rare three-quarter-acre-plus lot for an impressive presence. Magnificent entertaining spaces—both inside and out—have effortlessly hosted gatherings and events for over 200 guests. Breathtaking character, multiple intricate fireplaces, oversized rooms with stunning rounded walls and a mesmerizing collection of custom-stained-glass windows. Four generous bedrooms can be found on the second floor, with three to four additional spacious rooms upstairs. Brilliant, self-contained first-floor wing is an ideal home office with private entrance. Perfectly positioned on a gorgeous, tree-lined cul-de-sac, minutes from the best of shpping, dining a quick 25 minute commuter rail ride to Boston.

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 5,822 sq ft principal dwelling). Lot size: 33,414 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.
