Chestnut Hill, Residential neighborhood in Boston and Norfolk County, US
The area spans across three municipalities - Brookline, Newton, and Boston - defined by the 02467 ZIP Code and multiple small hills.
During the late 19th century, the region transformed from farmland with chestnut trees into a residential district with substantial estates and country clubs.
Boston College campus features Collegiate Gothic architecture while residential areas display Colonial, Italianate, Shingle, Tudor Revival, and Victorian designs.
The neighborhood connects to downtown Boston through multiple stops on the Green Line and provides access to upscale retail at The Street and Chestnut Hill Square.
The 135-acre Chestnut Hill Reservoir, designed by Frederick Law Olmsted in 1870, includes protected wetlands and forest preserves at Hammond Pond Reservation.
