Back Bay

This classic Back Bay brownstone was restored by the Ascalon team to reflect the historic character of the neighborhood. Working in conjunction with the Back Bay Architectural Commission, our team restored the original brick siding in both the front and rear of the house. Historically inaccurate concrete structures in the rear were replaced with original brownstone clay fired bricks and polished copper siding.

West Newton

Designed working in conjunction with the Newton Historical Society, this late 1800's Victorian was restored with original historical colors. The original stained glass windows that had been blocked off were uncovered and restored, and historically accurate corbels and mansard roof were added and restored. The tasteful carriage house addition was a hit with the neighborhood and exemplifies our philosophy of adaptive reuse.

Eagle Hill, East Boston

Unanimously approved by the Eagle Hill Civic Association, this multi family home was designed especially to blend in to the neighborhood and reflect historic East Boston's heritage. Bay windows, slate shingles, and the mansard roof were just several of many features that earned the high esteem of the neighborhood and local community.

South End

This classic brick South End home was the former residence of the late Allan Rohan Crite, one of Boston's greatest artists and a landmark member for decades in the city's African-American community. Though it had fallen into disrepair in Mr. Crite's old age, our team restored this historic home and the open house commencement ceremony was attended by Mayor Thomas Menino and many prominent members of Boston's African-American community.

Waban, Newton

A former church rectory built in 1920, this home had long been a staple of the community. Keeping that in mind, our carpenters carefully preserved original flooring, millwork, and door frames. The exterior brick was repaired and the aluminum siding, which had fallen into disrepair, was replaced with historical wood siding and wood-framed windows.

Charlestown

These Charlestown homes were designed to fit the historic character of one of Boston's most beloved neighborhoods. Our historical design consultant worked in cooperation with our architect and based on neighborhood input created two beautiful buildings that employed classic Boston design elements, such as bay windows, flat roofs, and historical color schemes.

Union Square, Somerville

Under the guidance of the Union Square Neighborhood Council, this tastefully constructed two family home was designed with neighborhood input to incorporate architectural elements of traditional Somerville working class neighborhood homes, while designing a building that is beautiful to the modern eye. Our architectural team consulted historical color experts to coordinate our design choices on the home's exterior.

Newton Corner, Newton

An early 20th century Tudor nestled in a quiet neighborhood that was brought back to life by the Ascalon team. The historic flooring and doors were preserved and the brick was repointed and repaired with the addition of tasteful black metal siding to breathe new life into this boutique home in historic Newton corner.
