Luxury Home of the Week: An Italianesque Newton manor for nearly $8 million

This neoclassical Newton manor looks as if it belongs on the coast of Italy.
Architect Yefim Massarsky transformed the neoclassical home this year, demolishing and then rebuilding the 1924 structure and adding wings.
The stunning symmetrical design, Juliet balcony over the entrance, and front fountain add to the manor’s Old World look. On the inside, however, the home is the pinnacle of modern living, with everything from a sauna to an elevator.
Manuel Davis and Kristy Ganong of AdvisorsLiving have listed the 11,075-square-foot stucco home at 37 Radcliff Road for $7,895,000.
“The main architectural features from the original building were restored and enhanced per existing photographs and original 1924 drawings found in Newton City Hall archives,” the listing reads.
The master suite takes up the entire second floor of the west wing. An elevator from the three-car garage opens directly into the suite’s foyer. The master bath includes heated floors, a steam shower, and a towel warmer. The suite also features two walk-in closets, a gas fireplace, and French doors that open to a balcony that runs nearly the entire width of the room.
Head to the lower level, where there is a steam shower, a sauna, a climate-controlled wine cellar, and a guest suite. Other highlights of the property include four fireplaces, a butler’s pantry, an outdoor kitchen, an exercise room, two laundry rooms, heated bathroom floors, and a home theater.
The estate has six bedrooms, seven full baths, and three half baths. It sits on 0.67 of an acre.
Unlike many other luxury homes, Davis said, you don’t have to drive down a private road to get to this one — just a heated driveway.
