18 Lyndhurst St,Dorchester, MA 02124

Amazing Greek Revival in Dorchester with soaring 10 ft. ceilings, beautiful woodwork, floor-to-ceiling original windows, and many dramatic period details. Additional features worth noting are the large farmer’s porch spanning the length of the main house, a small courtyard ready to be brought back to life, and a koi pond in the front yard garden. The former Dorchester Academy was built as a private school in 1831, serving as a co-ed educational facility for several decades before merging with Milton Academy. After the merger the building was converted into a private residence around 1850. Filled with history, architectural details and amazing features that the right occupant or investor will be keen to learn about and see for themselves, this property is a diamond in the rough and will be truly amazing after it is restored, redeveloped, or reimagined!
