About this home
At the turn of the century, this was one of Boston's largest homes. Recently, the magnificent estate was named Roslindale?s sole landmark by the Boston Landmark Commission. Entering through a gate in the hedgerow, a rustic drive passes through a small orchard of fruit trees ending atop a rise at the grand entrance. Inside, the beautiful hardwood is reminiscent of times gone by. Kitchen and baths were tastefully modernized while protecting the original spirit with its warm multi-level foyer, antique fireplace, lovely music room. New glass solarium was added creating indoor space mimicking sunny outdoor gardens. Interior is done in grand scale with great halls and large rooms. An intriguing past, a bucolic setting, and state-of-the-art renovations create an estate that is timeless while remarkably efficient. All the work is done to protect its history and create modern cost-savings.. live here in comfort and style. Offers reviewed on Tuesday, 8/5/25, at noon
