Residential part of Newton with oak trees
Oak Hill is a village of Newton with wide suburban roadways shaded by oak trees. Mansions spanning 4,000 or more square feet sit next to each other on its winding, enclosed suburban roads, where neighbors keep basketball hoops in their driveways. Conservation land and wooded hiking trails surround the neighborhood, which has a private country club in its center. People move there because they want a quiet, secluded life in Newton instead of a neighborhood with a central business district. “Newton and Brookline are where families want to live basically for the school systems,” says Ryan McCormick, manager at Metro Realty Corp. in nearby Brookline. “You get more for your money in Newton, and if you want a suburb and you get out of Brookline and go to Newton where you get a little more space.”

At the private, 100-year-old Charles River Country Club, members can golf, dine and play racquet sports like tennis and pickleball.
