"First village of Newton, complete with good shopping, restaurants and baked goods"

The very first village of Newton was named Newton Corner and established in the early 1600s as a farming community. A lot has changed since then. Today, Newton Corner is a well-established neighborhood complete with shops, restaurants, delis, offices, and businesses.

One of the most popular and well-recognized businesses in Newton Corner is known as Newton Corner Oriental Rug Corporation. The store is filled with much more than just rugs, but possibly every kind of flooring and home décor piece imaginable. For baked goods, the ever popular Spagnuolo Bakehouse can provide just what your taste buds long for. Getting their early on the weekends is a good thing, because the line can cause quite the wait.

Most of the homes in Newton Corner are historic and showcase the architecture and unique designs of the “olden days.” Some of the buildings, including the Jackson Homestead, are found on the National Register of Historic Places. Today the Jackson Homestead is home of the city museum.
