Massachusetts, Middlesex County, Newton, USA

Historic in character and contemporary in expression, Residence 304 at The Elliot Estate is a distinctive carriage house home offering approximately 2,097 square feet of thoughtfully finished living space across four levels. The residence includes three bedrooms plus a separate ADU-style bonus space, ideal as an additional bedroom, home office, den or fitness room. Designed for everyday living and entertaining, the main level brings together the kitchen, dining and living areas around a dramatic three-sided fireplace wrapped in richly veined stone. The kitchen pairs dark wood and high-gloss white cabinetry with expansive stone surfaces, a waterfall island with seating, a full-height slab backsplash, double wall ovens and a gas cooktop. An integrated wine bar and beverage station extend the cabinetry and provide additional function. Black-framed windows fill the home with natural light, while warm wood accents, sculptural lighting and an open staircase connect its contemporary design with the character of the original carriage house. A considered mix of dark millwork, pale stone, warm metal and wood flooring creates a cohesive material palette throughout. The primary suite is set beneath cathedral ceilings and includes a walk-in closet and a beautifully finished en suite bath with dual vessel sinks, a warm wood vanity, brass fixtures, a freestanding soaking tub and an oversized glass-enclosed shower surrounded by dramatic stone. Two additional bedrooms provide comfortable private accommodations. Set apart from the main living areas, the bonus space is enhanced by French doors opening directly to a private stone terrace and can easily adapt to changing needs. Above, a sun-filled loft with cupola views offers another flexible destination for working, relaxing or gathering. Integrated home technology, deeded garage parking, an additional off-street space and a rare combination of scale, flexibility and architectural character complete this singular Newton residence.
