54 Hawthorn Avenue, Needham, Masschussetts—There are plenty of beautiful new construction homes in Needham.

Finding one where you can leave the car in the driveway is another story.

The greatest luxury this home offers may not be found inside its walls.


Set on a quiet side street just moments from Needham Center, the commuter rail, Perry Park, and all three public schools, this newly built Colonial offers something that can't be added later: a location that naturally simplifies everyday life. Morning walks to school, an afternoon at the park, dinner in town, or the train into Boston all become part of a routine that's less dependent on the car and more connected to the community.

It's the kind of neighborhood where people put down roots. Families often stay for decades, creating the sense of familiarity and community that makes this part of Needham so highly sought after.

Fortunately, a location like this is matched by a home equally deserving of it.

Thoughtfully crafted, the home showcases the timeless appeal of new construction, blending classic Colonial architecture with the modern conveniences today's buyers value most. The heart of the home is a beautifully appointed kitchen featuring an oversized island, quartz countertops, double ovens, vented cooking, and a pot filler—designed for everything from busy weekday mornings to effortless entertaining. Coffered ceilings and detailed millwork add warmth and character to the dining room, while a flexible first-floor living room behind glass French doors easily adapts as a home office, guest suite, or sixth bedroom. Three finished levels, five bedrooms, four-and-a-half baths, and an attached two-car garage provide the versatility to grow and evolve alongside whomever calls it home.

Built by a respected local builder known for quality craftsmanship and responsive service, the home reflects the confidence that comes from working with a team invested not only in building exceptional houses, but in standing behind them.

Listing agent Maura Cutting has one piece of advice for the future owners:

"Budget for a new pair of sneakers."

Between Needham Center, the commuter rail, Perry Park, and all three schools less than a mile away, daily life here is designed to happen on foot. In a community where convenience is often measured in minutes behind the wheel, this home quietly offers something different.

The freedom to leave the car parked.
