Roxbury Jacobean Colonial Was in Same Family for Four Decades

The 3,491-square-foot, 12-room Jacobean Colonial at 268 Humboldt Avenue near Franklin Park in Roxbury dates from 1900. It looks every bit the English manor that the Denenberg Realty listing describes it as: the sweeping staircase, the arches, the mahogany, the stenciling, the stained glass, the hand-painted murals, the brick exterior itself, even the carriage house out back.

The same family has maintained the house for nearly 40 years and now it's on sale for $999,999. Go.
