Description
Set on approximately five acres of beautifully landscaped grounds, this distinctive residence at the historic Riley Carriage House offers an exceptional combination of architectural character, privacy, and modern living. Originally built in 1870 as part of the Charles Riley Estate and thoughtfully converted into just six residences, this special property enjoys a peaceful, park-like setting in the heart of Newton. Inside, a reimagined open floor plan features bright, inviting living and dining spaces designed for both everyday comfort and entertaining, plus a flexible main-level bedroom option. Thoughtful updates include two marble gas fireplaces, upgraded electrical, new LED lighting, and a Sonos sound system with built-in Bose speakers. The updated primary suite features a marble bath and enhanced closet space. An upper deck and screened porch extend the living outdoors, completing this sophisticated and beautifully maintained home.
