102 Staniford Street in the Auburndale section of Newton, Massachusetts, is a rare surviving element of Auburndale's agricultural past, including both a 19th-century house and barn. Built about 1869 and enlarged in 1915, it exhibits vernacular Italianate styling. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.[1] As of 2014, it was still within the family of its original owner.

Description and history

102 Staniford Street stands in a residential area north of the village center of Auburndale, on the east side of Staniford Street north of West Pine Street. It stands on over {{convert|1|acre|ha}} of land, along with a 19th-century barn that has been repurposed into housing. The house is a 2-1/2 story wood-frame structure, that is basically T-shaped with a cross-gabled roof. The original main block is oriented facing south, but subsequent modifications have relocated the main entrance to the west side of the north-facing T leg. A single-story porch extends across the western facade, decorated with latticework balustrade and posts. A nod is made to Italianate styling with a round-arch window in the west-facing gable.[3]

The house was built about 1869 for Patrick Carey, an Irish immigrant who came to the United States in 1859, settling in Newton by 1865. Originally working as a laborer, Carey developed the property as a dairy farm. One of his descendants converted the property to poultry farming in the 1930s, a role continued until the 1950s. The barn is of 19th-century construction, but has undergone numerous modifications, first for conversion to support the raising of poultry, and then as a residence. It is one of the few surviving agricultural buildings in the city.[2]
