Both townhouses boast a beautiful Low Art Tile fireplace surround. THe two built in glass doored cupboards and the unusually spacious and numerous closets reflect a forward thinking Charles Kibby in Victorian times. J. H. KIbby and Son were prominent builders in Massachusetts. Their construction skills are reflected.

2020 listing notes, preserved for the record: the record’s Disclosures field is empty — nothing withheld. Date note, recorded rather than resolved: the structured record dates the house to 1895 (public record, approximate), while the remarks above date its construction to circa 1900; both figures are carried as recorded — the same pairing of dates appears in the record of its mirror-image twin at 22 Willard Street. The record’s “Foundation Size: 9,999,999” is placeholder data of the excluded class and is not carried as a fact, and no Terms line appears in this post’s record.
