This large-scale Shingle Style five-bedroom house, located at the crest of "Carruth's Hill", was designed by talented architect Edwin J. Lewis, a Dorchester native whose fine residential work graces much of the Ashmont neighborhood-one of Boston's best-preserved enclaves of Victorian homes. Built in 1889, this grand home features characteristics of Lewis' best work in this style. Charm abounds in details on three fireplace mantles, pocket doors half-moon seating area off the dining room. Many sensitive updates as part of recent, high-end renovation include a cook's kitchen, 2.5 designer baths butler's pantry with wet bar-resulting in a warm and inviting atmosphere that combines quality and craftsmanship of the 19th century with the comforts of the 21st century. Updates include new high efficiency heating cooling system, new slate roof and blown-in insulation. Anchored by a large front lawn, beautifully landscaped fenced-in rear yard, 2-car garage private drive.
