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 hard wood millwork is reminiscent of times gone by, providing a warm welcome. The kitchen and baths have been beautifully brought up to modern tastes while carefully protecting the original spirit of the home with its warm multi-level foyer, substantial fireplace, and lovely music room. A must-see solarium was recently added to create an indoor space mimicking the sunny outdoor gardens. The 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 both timeless and remarkable; a perfect choice for your home. Thank you for viewing this Roslindale treasure.
