About this home

Located in the heart of Pill Hill’s Historic District, 133 Walnut Street is part of a rare post–Civil War rowhouse trio showcasing picturesque Gothic Revival elements. Built by George Richardson and completed by contractor Walter Warren, these brick townhomes feature decorative woodwork and distinctive design. While 129 has experienced alterations over time—including changes to the original bay window cornice and siding—it offers a rare opportunity for restoration. No parking. Property requires a full rehab and is subject to Historic District guidelines and Brookline Preservation Commission oversight. A unique chance to own and restore a piece of Brookline history. This property is situated in the William H. Lincoln School district and is convenient to village shops, restaurants, and playgrounds.
