Welcome to Holliston

Historically classic and welcoming, a perfect mix of traditional and modern-day living

Holliston lies just southwest of Boston and is a quaint place to live that is based on tradition with beautifully crafted homes with all amenities close by. Residents only need to walk, drive or take a short train ride to any amenities they desire.

In its early days, Holliston was a land shared between Native Americans and European settlers. The two communities learned to share the land while teaching each other ways to survive in a climate that was not as welcoming as it is today. The combination of various Native American tribes and European settlers still shows in Holliston’s incredibly accepting community.

Today, Holliston is a peaceful town filled with Greek-inspired revival architecture in its homes and buildings. Relying on the simple beauty of symmetry to avoid encroaching on the marvels of nature, residents of Holliston can expect updated interiors and comfortable paved paths and streets.
