Once the residence of a renowned architect and musician, it carries a quiet grace, a place where design meets creativity and timeless craftsmanship thrived. Designed in 1924 by Lois Lilley Howe, a founder of the first all female architecture firm in Boston and first female to graduate from MIT Architecture program. Mature plantings surround the home and the large yard gives a lush feeling with a sense of privacy. Beyond its historic façade lies a world of possibility with sun filled rooms, historic character, and the rare chance to create a masterpiece of your own. Just moments from Harvard Square, this is your chance to shape the next chapter of this homes enduring story. Sale proceeds benefit two foundations, one focuses on International youth peace building and the other supports young musicians in Europe.
