About this home

Premier waterfront property on Crystal Lake just outside Newton Centre. Masterfully designed and built in 2011, this house has been featured on HGTV’s Best of Houses with Curb Appeal, Custom Builder Magazine, and the Newton House Tour. Embracing the breathtaking four season views of Crystal Lake, a 2025 complete cosmetic update boasts pristine white-washed and a pallet of light tile, stone and woodwork. Recent upgrades include a second laundry area, third full bathroom and an additional 600+ sq ft of bright, immaculate multipurpose space. Two front living rooms overlook the water with nearly floor to ceiling windows throughout provide unrivaled serenity. The oversized eat-in kitchen with both banquet table as well as barstool seating creates a welcoming atmosphere. Upstairs, the extravagant primary suite offers full lake views from both the bedroom and bath, and three additional bedrooms. A full bath, and a laundry room complete the second floor. Extraordinary lakefront property!
