Welcome to Chestnut Hill

An exclusive enclave of elegant estates.

Just outside Boston, Chestnut Hill is a vibrant community spanning parts of Brookline, Newton, and Boston. In this historic enclave, winding streets lead to spacious estates where gracious living thrives. Bordered by natural reserves and the idyllic campus of Boston College, this hamlet offers residents a natural setting.

Gracious living in a peaceful setting.

Newton's tranquil environs host an old-world domestic elegance. Red maples and copper beech trees line many of the meandering roads, creating an arch of distinctive color over the streets. Residents often entertain at home, quick to welcome friends and neighbors over for a dinner party or afternoon tea.

Filled with the finer things in life.

Expect white-glove service at Newton’s restaurants and retailers. With four distinct high-end shopping centers, the neighborhood is well-known as a destination for the best in brand-name fashion, home decor, jewelry, and more. Favorite fine dining establishments include three acclaimed steakhouses and the classy French bistro Aquitaine. A bevy of spas and salons keep locals pampered and poised.

You'll fall in love with pristine naturescapes.

Fredrick Law Olmsted, who lived nearby, left his landscaping mark on Chestnut Hill by designing the Hammond Pond Reservoir. Known locally as just “the res,” the area is a popular jogging and strolling spot. The village is also home to the woodsy wonderland of the Lost Pond Reservation, which a community group protected to preserve its unique forest and peat bog landscape. Bucolic New England shines brightly in Chestnut Hill and Newton.
