The Shirley-Eustis House in Boston is much more than just a beautiful walk. It is history, it is culture, it is architecture and a return to the past in times of the British Empire. This entrance will give you a deeper insight into the English roots that permeated North America and gave birth to the nation it is today.
Explore this Palladian-style mansion built between 1747-1751, originally as a summer estate. Walk through its gardens and orchards, tour its rooms that still retain their furnishings and interior decor. Learn how the English elites who lived around Roxbury, Boston, lived.
