Inside, a graceful staircase rises from the formal foyer. Hardwood floors, restored period detail, and large windows looking over the front and side yards. Seven bedrooms across the upper floors.

The asking price is now $12,900,000

People Doing Cool S**t, Nº 01.

Ashley Stanley started Spoonfuls sixteen years ago with an idea she still calls simple: good food should reach the people who need it instead of going to waste. She has spent every year since on the part that isn’t simple.

On The Scoop, she explains why the problem was never a lack of food, and why she is building Spoonfuls to last while working toward a day when fewer people need it.

Set back from the road on nine-tenths of an acre is 394 Hammond Street in Chestnut Hill. A Victorian, built in 1880.

Inside, a formal foyer opens on a grand staircase. Beyond it, a double parlor, a banquet-sized dining, four fireplaces, and reclaimed hardwood. The eat-in kitchen looks over the back yard, and a covered loggia runs off the back.

The primary suite is on the second floor, with its own bath and a study. More bedrooms take the floor above, and the laundry with them. A separate two-car barn.

Every year, hundreds of residential architecture firms tell the American Institute of Architects what their clients are asking for. This year, the cold plunge lost more ground than anything else on the list. The ceiling went the other way.

The survey calls it a statement ceiling. Painted a color, finished in high gloss, or boarded in wood, like this one.

The top of the list held from last year: room for more than one generation, a primary suite on the first floor, wider doorways and halls. Pocket doors and French doors climbed as much as the ceiling.

Next time you walk into a room, look up.

16 Abbott Street is under agreement.

The Victorian was built in 1887, a few blocks from the center of Wellesley. A double entry opens to an antique staircase and a traditional foyer, and the living room takes a bay window over Abbott Street. The eat-in kitchen, with a large island and breakfast bar, opens directly onto a large patio.
Upstairs, the primary suite has vaulted ceilings, large windows, and a private bath.

The Beacon Hill Pub was the dive bar on Charles Street. It closed in 2022, and the storefront has been dark since.

Patrick Lyons is bringing it back as something else: Harry Hare's, an English alehouse. His group already runs Scampo and Alibi at the Liberty Hotel, and Harvard Gardens nearby.

The kitchen is being shaped by Bill Poirier, once the executive chef at Sonsie on Newbury Street. His menu puts fish and chips and chicken pot pie alongside chicken tikka masala with tandoori naan.

The room in the picture is still a rendering. No opening date yet. Worth keeping an eye on.
