Indian Hill House

Indian Hill House is a mid-century residence in Groton featuring concrete walls and glazed wooden elements throughout its structure. The building extends across multiple levels within a wooded setting on its property.

Architect Maurice K. Smith designed the house in 1962-63, with Ralph S. Osmond & Sons handling the construction on a wooded property. The project represents residential design thinking from the mid-century period.

The house gained recognition in architectural publications during the 1960s and 1980s, including Harvard Art Review, Harvard Educational Review, and Progressive Architecture. This attention reflects how the design community viewed the building's approach to residential architecture.

The property's address changed from Indian Hill Road to Skyfields Drive following a land subdivision in 2000. Visitors should note the current access point when planning to visit.

More than 50 original drawings and photographs of the house are preserved in the MIT Libraries. This archive provides insight into the design process and the building's importance to architectural history.
