429 Summer Street

This magnificent Georgian Colonial on 12+ acres is set in the heart of Westwood’s estate area. Custom designed by Johnson, Craven & Gibson, it is modeled after William Lawrence Bottomley’s Milburne in Richmond, Virginia. Everything is beautifully conceived - from the bricks that were specially fired in Virginia, to the fine detailing of the custom woodwork and fixtures, to the beautifully proportioned architecture.

The stunning entry hall with its sweeping staircase is flanked by exquisite formal living and dining rooms, a classic library and a wonderful breakfast room - all of which overlook the south-facing bluestone terrace and the grounds beyond. A spacious kitchen with adjoining butler’s pantry plus two wings that provide separate living areas for family and guests complete the first floor. Upstairs is the spacious primary suite with separate baths and an adjoining office. There are a total of over six bedrooms and six and one-half baths.

The grounds are spectacular, impeccably designed by Morgan Wheelock, and set at the end of a long private drive that borders the Dedham Country & Polo Club’s 18th fairway. The amazing back lawn is bordered by a breathtaking conservatory-greenhouse, a lovely pool and cabana, a peaceful walking path, a tennis court and a six-acre wood to explore.
