As Paul Hunt, the son of famous painter, William Morris Hunt, and the nephew of famed architect Richard Morris Hunt, built his house in Brookline, Massachusetts, he also began constructing this neighboring property which was to be sold upon completion (that is one good way to pick your neighbors!) On an oversized lot on Powell Street, Paul Hunt worked with his architect, Milton W. Stratton of Bar Harbor, to furnish plans for a similar style home to his own next door. The Mission Revival style mansion is set behind a tall, stucco and metal fence, and is constructed of wood and covered with stucco siding and capped by a lovely green tile roof. Main architectural details include the Mission-style dormer and the chimneys with round arched tops that are capped with small hipped roofs, creating a whimsical addition to the house. When finished, the property was sold to Louis Coues Page (1869-1956), a wealthy publisher with offices in Boston. Louis C. Page would hire local architect Edward B. Stratton, in 1916, to design a detached automobile garage in a style mimicking the main house. What an incredible property.

I know this house. It is near a park I used to take my kids to and still go and sit in its rose garden. This house is on a ? triple lot surrounded by a wall painted the same color as the house with several arched entrances with wrought iron grilles I think it is. Anyway so many people including myself have peeked in through the wrought iron that the people who live there put plywood over the various grilles/entrances so you can’t see in anymore. As of a few years ago, anyway.
