The architect’s vision for this exceptional 2025 residence was to preserve the timeless elegance of Georgian Revival architecture while reimagining the floor plan for contemporary living. The result is a beautifully balanced home with sun-filled, visually connected spaces that flow seamlessly to outdoor terraces, gardens, a 15' x 38' pool, and cabana. The design thoughtfully combines beauty and functionality, pairing classic architectural details with innovative building systems and energy-efficient technology. Distinctive elements include graciously proportioned rooms, symmetry, finely crafted millwork, a red-brick Georgian façade with limestone accents, French doors with transom windows, fireplaces with custom surrounds, and expansive wrap-around terraces. The result is a timeless yet thoroughly modern home—warm, inviting, and designed for effortless everyday living and entertaining, with exceptional connectivity between the interior and outdoors. Set in one of Newton’s most sought-after locations, the property is just steps from Newton Centre, minutes from The Street at Chestnut Hill, and approximately 15 minutes from Boston.
