114 Alban St
Dorchester, MA 02124

Sited on a corner lot at the foot of Dorchester's historic Ashmont Hill is one of the finest, most majestic, and stately, single family colonial revival homes built in the 1880's. Superb site close to Ashmont MBTA station and one of the largest lots on Alban Street with a detached 2 car garage. This home is set apart by its period detail, center entrance, symmetrical façade, curved bay windows, and six fireplaces. The two principal rooms on the first floor open onto the central foyer, which like older colonial-era houses, has a stair ascending along one sidewall. The parlors to the right and left have impressive mantelpieces and wide doorways with pocket doors. The second floor foyer is just as inspiring with a sitting area that leads to front porch. The kitchen, bathrooms, and historical porch detail on the rooftop and exterior among other things are in need of rehabilitation. Be the one to restore the historical integrity, architectural elements, and beauty of this home.
