Belinda Negron

Principal

Belinda Negron has been designing and building some of Boston’s finest homes in the finest neighborhoods, since 1998.  She specializes in bringing historic homes back to life and customizing them for modern families.  Her love of design is at the heart of every one of her projects.  

“When I first consider a property, I identify what is unique about it.  Each project is different because I develop with every aspect of the environment, the layout, and space in mind.  A theme will emerge that is carried through the entire project, down to the smallest detail.”

A graduate of Suffolk Law School and Florida State University, Belinda worked in strategic alliances with Lotus for over 10 years.  She began her career in residential construction after finding she needed a more creative outlet for her design skills.  Property development allowed her to combine her creative ingenuity with her expertise in project management.

“Developing the kind of high-end homes that we’re known for, where every detail counts, doesn’t end with design.  I think we manage the whole process with the same care and integrity that goes into our homes.  Our reputation has been built on that philosophy.”
