Completed in 1926, this magnificent neo-classical three-story mansion represents the culmination of years of painstaking construction. Designed by Boston architects Blackhall, Clapp, and Whittemore, the steel-beam construction residence was built for Harding Allen, owner of the Chas. G. Allen Co., a drilling and tapping machine company and iron foundry. The company was founded during the Civil War to build Yankee hay rakes. During its peak, the company employed approximately 742 people. The company is considerably smaller today, but still in existence.
Harding's widow, Carrie C. Allen, passed away in 1946, the property was auctioned and Dr. and Mrs. Richard Fowler purchased a portion of the estate including the mansion. The property remained in the Fowler family until it was repurchased in 1972 by the great-nephew of Harding Allen, Steve Goldsmith. He and his wife Ina owned the property until February of 1995, when it was acquired by Alain Beret and James Fairbanks.
The mansion is distinguished by an imposing two-story portico and elegant balustraded porches. Inside, the fine interior plaster molding, carved millwork and marble detail executed by expert Italian craftsmen has all been preserved intact. Original lighting fixtures are featured throughout
