The House at 380 Albion Street in Wakefield, Massachusetts is one of the finest Bungalow/Craftsman style houses in the town. It was built c. 1910 in a then-rural part of Wakefield that been annexed from Stoneham in the 1880s. The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
Description and history
Albion Street is a major local thoroughfare, running southwest from the center of Wakefield to the north side of Stoneham center. Number 380 is set on a parcel under 1 acre (0.40 ha) in size that abuts the present town line at the Green Street intersection. The parcel is fringed on its street-facing sides by a low field-stone retaining wall capped in concrete The house is a single story building with a shallow pitch roof that extend across a wraparound porch supported by Craftsan-style sloping square columns. The gables are decorated with latticework and there are decorated viga-like rafter ends embellishing the area. The building is roughly T-shaped, with three-part picture and casement window combinations at the front of the gable, and of the projecting side section. It has been extended to the rear, with a period garage attached on the right rear.[2]
The Albion Street area was largely farmland in the 19th century, and was part of a large rural tract that Wakefield annexed from Stoneham in 1880. This house does not appear on a 1906 map of the area, which showed some development north of Albion Street. From stylistic evidence, its construction date is estimated to be 1910.[2]
