Extraordinary 1894 Queen Anne Victorian in the Smith College area of Northampton with 3700 +/- sq. ft , 6 br's & 3+ baths with all its original, historic features intact. Known as the J.W.

The house is sited on the largest lot on one of the most desirable streets in town and includes a 50’ long swimming pool for laps with a shallow end for play, adorned with a 19th Century ornamental cast iron fence and flagstaff patio.
