As Thanksgiving draws near, I'm showcasing the history of Massachusetts through its stunning colonial style homes. These homes are not just structures; they tell a story of the Pilgrims and their legacy, reflecting the rich colonial history and cultural heritage of Massachusetts.
Remarkably, Massachusetts is home to some of the earliest European settlements in North America, with over 36% of its homes built before the Second World War, many dating back to the 17th and 18th centuries. This deep-rooted history is vividly present in these colonial style homes, each telling a unique part of the state's past.
From cozy fireplaces to timeless brick exteriors, each of these 5 homes offers a unique glimpse into the past, blending historical charm with modern comforts. If you're a history or architecture enthusiast, and like the colonial style, you shouldn’t miss these properties.
So, why don’t you grab a slice of pumpkin pie and join us on a journey through Massachusetts's top colonial style homes?
