Lots of people ask me if I know of Peabody & Stearns-designed homes that are currently for sale. Well, of course I do! And wouldn't I love to have one! ..... For those of you who are yearning for your own P&S house, I will try to include links to current listings on my blog site from time to time. Right now I know of at least two homes:
In Newport, Rhode Island, there is a wonderful home, Honeysuckle Lodge, that is offered for sale. I first visited Honeysuckle Lodge about 14 years ago, when I was working on my master's thesis. And, I visited it a couple of weeks ago, with the group from the Peabody & Stearns symposium hosted by the Newport International Tennis Hall of Fame--we had three lectures (I was one of the invited speakers...), had lunch, and then visited three P&S homes in Newport. The weather was wonderful, for a change, and I think that everyone loved Honeysuckle Lodge the best. See the listing information on the Gustave White website http://www.gustavewhite.com/.. Listed at $10,900,000, it is an exquisite property, but so very liveable! Here's their video and presentation materials.... If you buy it, be sure to tell them that I sent you!! http://www.seetheproperty.com/presentation_v2/presentation.php?order_id=65125&mode=branded&ws=1&from=http%3A//www.google.com/url%3Fsa%3Dt%26source%3Dweb%26cd%3D8%26ved%3D0CEQQFjAH%26url%3Dhttp%253A%252F%252Fwww.seetheproperty.com%252F65125%26rct%3Dj%26q%3Dhoneysuckle%2520lodge%2520newport%2520ri%26ei%3DkaHdTenIGcH40gH_ibHfDw%26usg%3DAFQjCNGCV-XkpccQdbTXXJ-RsSI9RMTxzw
For those who want a city propety, try the Bradley mansion in Boston: http://www.thebradley.com/ offered by The Campion Company. OR, for 22 Irving Street in Brookline....a wonderfully restored P&S home with LOTS of special P&S history....http://www.movoto.com/real-estate/homes-for-sale/MA/Brookline/22-Irving-St-300_71168782.htm. Offered by Movoto Real Estate.
So, hope that helps all of you looking to buy an authentic Peabody & Stearns designed home.....let me know about others, and I'll be happy to post them! More info on all of these in future blogs!
