Newton is Greater Boston's benchmark family suburb, a city of around 88,000 people about 7 miles west of downtown. It is organized into 13 distinct villages, each with its own commercial center, character, and price point, which is why a single citywide number tells you very little. As of August 2026, per MLS data, the median sale price ranges from roughly $1.5 million to $1.85 million depending on the village. Single family homes carry a median near $1.9 million, while condominiums sit closer to $685,000. Most of the two family and three family stock sits in Newton Corner and Nonantum, which is where investors and price sensitive buyers tend to look first. Newton has the strongest transit profile in the corridor: the Green Line D branch, three Framingham/Worcester commuter rail stations, and direct Mass Pike access. Boston College and Lasell University support steady year round rental demand. Newton Public Schools rank #10 among Massachusetts districts on Niche's 2026 list, with an overall grade of A plus. Newton was among the first wave of Greater Boston communities to adopt MBTA 3A zoning, passing its Village Center Overlay District in December 2023 within the state deadline for rapid transit communities. The overlay permits multifamily development by right in the village centers and has materially changed what is buildable there. PH Realty Group is based at 1075 Washington Street in West Newton and works with buyers, sellers, landlords, and investors across all 13 villages.
