There’s something irresistibly charming about living in a carriage house, especially one with as much character as this 6,542-square-foot stable in Newton. Designed by the noted architecture firm Chapman and Frazer as part of the circa 1905 Houghton Estate, the Mission Revival style building (rare on the East Coast) was lovingly renovated by area builder Peter Fallon four years ago. Now the structure that once housed dusty tack—it still retains the mechanical cart hoist, cobblestone courtyard, and rustic millwork—features high-fashion interiors from local designer Liz Caan that stylishly blend past and present.
