About this home

The Crossways is a 1914 mansion formerly home to B. H. Bristow Draper and Queena Sanford Draper. Bristow Draper, son of the late Massachusetts Governor Eben S. Draper, carried forward a family legacy deeply woven into Hopedale's history. Extensively renovated, the residence retains the scale, craftsmanship, and architectural character that evoke the grandeur of the Gatsby era. A grand foyer introduces an entertaining level defined by coffered ceilings, decorative moldings, and crystal chandeliers. At its center, a 39-foot cherrywood ballroom creates a dramatic setting for gatherings, complemented by a game room anchored by an 8-foot floor-to-ceiling fireplace, a 32-foot formal dining room, a step-up library, and a sunroom. The kitchen brings modern function to the home's grand scale, with granite countertops, a vent-hood cooktop range, a wall oven, and a butler's pantry with a second sink. The primary suite features a marble fireplace, two walk-in closets with built-ins, and a marble ensuite bath with tiled shower and jetted tub. Six additional second-floor bedrooms each have direct bathroom access, while a private third-floor suite with a full bath provides flexible bonus space. Hydro-air heating, central air conditioning, updated wiring, and updated plumbing support everyday comfort. Outdoors, Italian formal gardens encompass upper and lower garden areas, a fountain, inground pool, and hot tub.
