This is one of my favorite homes in the West End. Near Waynflete School, just off Carroll Street the roof lines, slate roof, the vinework and chimneys all attract my interest. Dad's job, as a letter carrier, brought him up here daily for over 25 years. With houses like this, no wonder he loved his job. It's a rambling structure on the other side too, with lots of living space, but the views towards the water, from these 3rd floor windows, are what grab my attention.

What a lovely house! Looks like someone has taken care of it over the years. I'm glad they're allowing the ivy to grow up the side.
