'A Truly Unique Home': 251-Square Foot Newton House Listed For $449,900

NEWTON (CBS) – For less than $450,000, you could own a home in a sought-after Newton neighborhood. But there's a catch.

The house on Boylston Street in Newton Highlands is on the market for $449,900. The home, which is now listed on several real estate websites, is only 251 square feet.

Earlier this week, a burned out Melrose home was listed "as-is" for $399,000.
