About this home
The John Faulkner House sits perched atop prestigious Belvidere Hill, among the grand estates of a bygone era, this extraordinary 8-bedroom Victorian masterpiece offers a rare opportunity to become the next steward of one of the city's architectural treasures. Built in 1887 the home showcases craftsmanship seldom seen today and is celebrated as one of Lowell's most outstanding examples of Shingle-style architecture. A remarkable stone rendering of Aesop's Fables adorns the front gable, while inside, sweeping staircases feature intricately carved handrails, decorative balusters, and stately newel posts. Rich wood paneling conceals original light switches, complemented by exquisite crown and dentil moldings throughout. No fewer than ten fireplaces anchor the home's gracious rooms, each framed by hand-carved mantels and intricate tile work. This is more than a residence-it's a living piece of history. A home that must be experienced to be truly understood.
