Overview

As you travel through the renowned Taft School neighborhood the history of the area reveals itself to you; there are the homes such as those on Woolson Street that were built over the town's first century of settlement, modest and charming - highlighting a time when practical and purposeful were the goals in constructing an American home. Surrounding these neighborhoods are those that counterbalance this aesthetic with an air of dignity and academia such as the large brick colonials seen on Woodbury Road. It is in this historic village that you find 75 Woolson Street; an unassuming colonial set into the hillside. At a time when Watertown was inhabited by a mere 1, 500 residents this charming colonial home was built, and since that time it has retained much of its original character.

Interestingly, because of this, one can design to a multitude of tastes since the traditional layout is one of simplicity; again highlighting the practicality of this era of construction.
