About this House

Set on a rare 15,000 sq. ft. lot just moments from Needham Center, Hersey commuter rail, Mitchell Elementary, Pollard Middle School, and Needham High School, this newly constructed home offers a balance of scale, craftsmanship, and flexibility seldom found in an in-town setting. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the interiors with natural light, highlighting 10-foot ceilings, custom millwork, bespoke cabinetry, designer lighting, and carefully selected stone and tile. A private office with custom built-ins offers a quiet and refined place to work. One of the home's defining features is the private first-floor suite, connected to the main residence by a striking glass breezeway. Whether used for extended guests, a private workspace, flexible living arrangements, or as a future pool house or cabana, it offers a level of versatility rarely found in new construction. The upper level is anchored by a private primary suite with a vestibule entrance, custom dressing closets, and a serene spa bath. Four additional en-suite bedrooms complete the level. The level backyard offers ample room for a pool, extending the living experience outdoors. The finished lower level is designed for recreation and wellness, featuring generous gathering space, a gym, and a dedicated golf simulator room. Rarely does a newly built home offer this combination of land, location, and flexibility in one of Needham's premier in-town locations.

    "Living n Needham and commuting to the city is very straight forward. The rail line is dedicated to the Needham commuter rail, the line ends/originated in Needham, and there are 4 stops in the small town. I walk 5min from my house to the train and get off at back Bay to walk just another 5min to my office. Delays are limited due to the fact that this rail line only serves the Needham line."
