    What's special

    Once in a lifetime opportunity to purchase a full acre of Newton???s emerald necklace. Choose to live amidst the 57 acre wilderness of Nahanton Park and alongside the 5th hole of the Charles River Country Club. Enjoy easy morning strolls through woodlands and meadows to the Charles River. Retreat to the majesty and healing rhythms of wildlife and nature while living minutes from all that Newton has to offer. This lot is largely wooded and offers total seclusion. Yet the location also offers easy access to schools, major highways, shops and restaurants. Zoned SR3 allows it to be divided by right into two lots with homes up to 8,122 sq ft on each 1/2 acre. By right, the generous zoning allows for a single home up to 15,684 sq ft on one acre. There's a 19th century farm house considered a diamond in the rough by many requiring considerable restoration. Property being sold AS IS. Buyers should do due diligence prior to making an offer. Please submit offers by noon on Thursday May 23rd.
