About this property

188-190 Adams Street offers an exceptional development opportunity in a prime Newton location. Owned by the same family since 1940, this property is being offered “AS IS” for the first time in 85 years. The site presents project potential for over 12,000± sq. ft. of mixed-use business or residential development. Currently configured as a side-by-side two-family home with a detached structure—formerly a small family-run machine shop—both buildings require renovation, redevelopment, or replacement. Buyer to assume all risk. Located between Washington and Watertown Streets, the property offers convenient access to the Mass Pike (east to downtown Boston and west to Route 95/128), Newton Corner, Newton North High School, the MBTA commuter rail, and other transit options. This highly accessible corridor supports strong visibility and access to Newton’s shops, restaurants, and major employment centers. See firm remarks for additional disclosures.
