Kisco Senior Living is proud to announce the opening of The Newbury of Brookline, a premier senior living community located in the historic Fisher Hill neighborhood. This marks Kisco’s first senior living community in Massachusetts, offering residents a blend of comfortable elegance, quality care, and the five-star hospitality for which Kisco Signature is renowned. To mark this momentous occasion, the community hosted founding members, local officials and invited guests for a ribbon cutting.
Andy Kohlberg, Kisco Senior Living President and CEO, is optimistic about the future of the community.
“We are excited to bring Kisco’s renowned approach to senior living to Massachusetts with the opening of The Newbury of Brookline. Our commitment to creating environments that foster meaningful connections, wellness, and personalized care is at the heart of this community,” says Kohlberg. “The Newbury exemplifies Kisco’s dedication to elevating the experience of senior living, and we are proud to open our doors in such a historically rich and vibrant neighborhood.”
The Newbury will provide exceptional care through spacious independent and assisted living residences as well as memory care suites. Additionally, residents will enjoy an array of all-inclusive services, including chef-prepared meals designed to meet diverse dietary needs, a full calendar of life-enriching programs, and personalized concierge services. As with all Kisco communities, safety, peace of mind, and personal care are top priorities.
“What excites me most about The Newbury is the opportunity to build meaningful relationships with our residents. We are not just providing a place to live—we are creating a vibrant, supportive community where every individual feels seen and valued.” says Frances Bates, General Manager of The Newbury. “The combination of the historic community, exceptional care, and immersive programs will make The Newbury a place where our residents can truly flourish.”
Further, the community’s location provides residents with a unique lifestyle between city living and scenic serenity. With shared outdoor spaces, recreation areas, and other amenities, the community fosters meaningful connections between generations, echoing its former use as a college campus. Residents will enjoy the benefits of living in a tight-knit community within one of the region’s most picturesque settings.
The Newbury of Brookline’s exterior architecture is led by Robert A.M. Stern Architects (RAMSA), as the design architect, in collaboration with Finegold Alexander Architects as the architects of record, with interior design by Pembrooke & Ives. At the heart of the community is the historic Mitton House, a mansion built in 1895 that once belonged to one of Boston’s most influential merchants and later housed Cardinal Cushing College and Newbury College.
This grand opening marks not only the debut of Kisco Senior Living’s first community in Massachusetts but also the beginning of a new chapter in senior living for the Fisher Hill neighborhood. The team is eager to welcome the Brookline community to experience firsthand the warmth, care, and innovation The Newbury will bring for years to come.
