The Tappan-Philbrick house is proudly sited at the top of a hill on almost two-acres in Brookline’s Historic Pill Hill District. The landscape was originally designed by Frederick Law Olmsted and later by Morgan Wheelock.Stone pillars mark the entrance of the graceful approach to the house and grounds complete with stone walls and stunning rose gardens. One of the most notable historic houses in Brookline, this c.1822 Federal-style residence is recognized as a site on the Underground Railroad.
*Taxable value of land and structures on it ("additions") is determined regularly by local assessors and does not affect market price.

Local insights from Redfin agents
Brookline will continue to be a Seller's market for the foreseeable future, driven by restrictive zoning laws that have limited increases in housing production and a stable population with relatively low turnover. This has resulted in a massive...
