The AMAZING Bigelow House Condo Complex is home to this beautifully restored/updated oversized two-level unit! Atop a tall hill and situated on five acres of grassy lawn surrounded by thick woods, the incredible restoration/renovation was the work of the "THIS OLD HOUSE" crew in their 2nd TV season! Bob Villa, Norm Abrams, and the entire crew created 5 truly special and elegant condo units from what was originally a very large 1880s home designed by world-renowned architect H.H. Richardson. Many of the late 19th century building elements and details are intact, and the result is five spectacular units, of which #80 (an end unit) is the 2nd largest and perhaps the most stunning, architecturally and aesthetically. A great chef's kitchen, grand sunken living room with massive stone fireplace, cozy sunroom, 2 bedrooms (both with en suite baths), and beautifully kept expansive grounds. A one-car detached garage. In the heart of Newton. Convenient to highways, Boston, restaurants, and shops!

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
