Description

ROCKLAND, MA. MUCH ADMIRED HOME! From the moment you step over the threshold, it feels like "home"! A rare combination of beautifully restored elegance, comfort & history, this unique Second Empire French Mansard Victorian resides on a 1+ acre estate with carriage house. It's been maintained with love, care & attention to detail. Some alluring features are the 9.5 & 10.5' ceilings, marble fireplaces, "summer sleeping room", & hand made parquet floors. Call for a private tour.

A little history: The dwelling is considered the only three-story Second Empire style residence in Rockland. The Carriage House offers the same architectural design as the main house.

Joseph Stanley Turner (1841-1897) built the home for his bride, Fannie Merrill Turner (1849-1930) circa 1872. He acquired the property from Eugene Poole in that year. Turner owned the second largest shoe factory in Rockland, J.S. Turner & Co., located at Howard and Park Street, where fine quality shoes were manufactured.

More complete history of property will be furnished upon request.
