Applecroft

A majestic property in one of Boston’s most desirable suburbs, Applecroft preserves the artistic ideal of its period architecture and successfully adapts it to modern family living. This completely renovated estate home has been painstakingly brought back to its original splendor with every conceivable amenity added. The estate and grounds, now listed on the National Register of Historic Places, are protected by conservation easement that will ensure this most tranquil and bucolic property will remain for future generations.

Applecroft was built in 1890 in the neighboring community of Hyde Park and relocated to its current site in 1910. The home is a fine example of the high Colonial-Revival-style houses established in Milton and surrounding communities in the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries. It's picturesque grounds, nestled at the base of the Blue Hills Reservation, envelop the dwelling in endless, parklike fields with commanding views. This estate is truly a magnificent family home, one that provides a country-like refuge, private and peaceful, the perfect escape from hectic urban living. The historic home is situated on 8.5 beautiful acres of pastoral grounds including open fields, rolling hills and a seasonal stream. The home is set far back from Upper Canton Avenue, ensuring complete privacy as well as a scenic approach along the long drive to the main house.

While the property captures a true country lifestyle, it is still ideally located minutes away to Milton Center, Milton Hospital and Milton Academy as well as having convenient access to Boston and Logan Airport. This generational opportunity comes but once in a lifetime.
