15 Fairfax Street Boston, Massachusetts 02124

Built in 1885 and offered for the first time in over 30 years, this architecturally significant and
stately residence at 15 Fairfax Street presents a rare opportunity in Dorchester Center’s historic
Carruth Street/Peabody Square neighborhood, one of South Dorchester’s most established and
desirable residential enclaves near Ashmont and vibrant Davis Square. Encompassing an
impressive 4,928 square feet on a substantial 8,505 square foot sloping lot, the home combines
remarkable scale, period craftsmanship, and enduring presence—all while remaining within
Boston city limits with easy access to downtown Boston. The Ashmont Red Line is
approximately one-half mile away making for an easy commute and exceptional connectivity.

An impressive wraparound porch leads to a sweeping curved entryway that creates a
memorable first impression and welcomes guests into a grand central foyer flanked by two
expansive living rooms, including one anchored by a stunning fireplace. Rich architectural
details continue throughout with four additional fireplaces, soaring proportions, multiple porches
on every level, and gracious entertaining spaces including a formal dining room with
comfortable seating for twelve while still offering generous additional space for circulation,
serving, and entertaining. The home offers six bedrooms, two and a half baths, providing
exceptional flexibility for a variety of living and working arrangements.

The third level presents intriguing possibilities for future expansion or conversion, featuring a
kitchen, bathroom, bedroom, and grand living room that may lend itself to a potential apartment
configuration which it once was. Additional features of this home include a new gas furnace in
2025, tear-off roof replacement in 2016, an insulated attic, and the kind of scale and
craftsmanship rarely found today.

This is a property of uncommon character and substance, ready for its next steward to
thoughtfully restore and elevate its historic grandeur for generations to come.
