Excellent Location
A VILLAGE BED AND BREAKFAST is located in a Queen Anne Victorian (1893) in the heart of Newton Highlands, a delightful village in the City of Newton ("The Garden City"), rated in the top five safest cities in the U.S. and twice achieving the number one spot in that listing.
A Village B & B is just one block to the streetcar to Boston, walking distance to Crystal Lake, and minutes from all the major transportation routes, Interstate 95/Route 128, Route 9, and the Massachusetts Turnpike (I-90). Going to or from Boston or Logan airport by public transportation or car is quick, easy and direct. Off street parking is available.
A charming village at your doorstep ...
The Village of Newton Highlands has many restaurants and shops which delight visitors. Depending on your mood you can choose an upscale and delicious meal at 51 Lincoln, directly across the street, or walk down the block to the award winning, Baker’s Best, and the Lincoln Street Coffee Shop. Pick up smoothies and a quick lunch at the Coffee Corner after you turn right onto Walnut Street where there is a take out Sushi place, a popular Irish pub called O’Hara’s and Jamjuli, a moderately priced Thai restaurant.
