About this home
Step into a piece of Newton’s history with this beautiful, 1890 Italianate home in the heart of the McKinley Residential Historic District. First known as the Knowlton House, this residence stands among the earliest permanent homes constructed by the town’s founders. Of the fifteen Italianate homes that define the district, this one offers a rare blend of preserved character and modern comfort. Inside, you’ll find fresh interior paint throughout, refinished and re-stained wood floors, and thoughtfully updated spaces. The kitchen and bathrooms feature granite countertops that add a clean, contemporary touch without compromising the home’s historic charm. The upper level offers four generously sized bedrooms, each with tall windows and classic lines that echo the home’s architectural roots. A full bathroom serves the second floor, while a convenient main-floor bathroom supports everyday living. With its rich heritage, graceful proportions, and tasteful updates, the Knowlton House invites you to experience historic living with modern ease—right in one of Newton’s most treasured neighborhoods. Possible State Historic Tax Credits or the Heritage Trust Fund Grant Program to continue the restoration process of this one of kind, historic home....
