Property Description

Offered for the first time in more than 50 years, 9 Newbern Street is a substantial Sumner Hill home, rich with history, original architectural detail and extraordinary potential. Lovingly held by the same family since 1971—and the place where 11 children were raised—the home now awaits its next chapter. Set up on the hillside with a welcoming covered front porch, a gracious center staircase, coved plaster ceilings in the living and dining rooms and six bedrooms spanning the second and third floors provide the bones for a truly special restoration. The home offers a rare opportunity to thoughtfully reimagine a large, character-filled central Jamaica Plain residence.
