House at 41 Middlesex Road
The House at 41 Middlesex Road in the Chestnut Hill section of Newton, Massachusetts is a well-preserved local example of Shingle style architecture. The 2 1⁄2-story stone-and-wood house was built in 1894 by William R. Dupee, who lived on a nearby estate. The house was designed by Boston architect Horace Frazer, of Chapman & Frazer, and initially occupied by Dr. Frederick William Payne.[2] The ground floor has significant fieldstone elements, and the upper levels are clad in dark brown shingles. Some of the windows have diamond-paned muntins, a late Victorian touch. The house was expanded in the 1930s, with a 1 1⁄2-story addition and garage.[3]
