The Taylor House, a gracious sixteen room Victorian home in Boston's Jamaica Plain section, was built in 1853 for George W. Taylor, an international merchant headquartered in Boston. It is situated within the Monument Square Historic District, and lies in an area known as "Pondside," which contains some of Jamaica Plain's finest suburban architecture. The structure is predominantly Italianate in style, but retains some Greek Revival elements that reflect the earliest architectural style found in Jamaica Plain. A distinctive octagonal cupola sits atop the main house, and this shape is echoed in a number of ways within the interior of the structure. This house has been beautifully restored and is surrounded by Victorian- inspired gardens. It is located less than one block from a beautiful pond and a town centre that offers excellent dining. Guests will enjoy a complimentary continental plus breakfast daily on the first floor.
The Taylor House offers large rooms with high ceilings, private bathrooms and comfortable conveniences. All of rooms have distinctive light fixtures, unique decorative paint finishes, and modern art. The bathrooms are each different and newly renovated. Each room features TV/VCR, and a private phone line with internet access. Guests with a wireless PC card can tap into an in-house wireless network. The Taylor House is convenient to fine dining, shopping and entertainment venues. |
