Five Massachusetts Avenue is reputed to be one of Worcester's most beautiful homes and is listed in the National Register of Historic Places. Built in 1903 and designed by Lucius Briggs, who also designed Worcester Memorial Auditorium, the house is a Colonial Revival. Upon entering one is greeted with a dramatic central hall with magnificent mahogany railed divided staircase ideal for gracious entertaining. Throughout the house is exquisite woodwork and architectural detail including an oak paneled library, a heated conservatory, original custom valances and a full butlers pantry. Nationally known landscape architects Rudy Favretti and Warren Leach designed gardens which surround the house and the carriage house. The two story carriage house includes a garage and beautifully finished office space.
