Alvah Kittredge House, Greek Revival mansion in Roxbury, United States.
The Alvah Kittredge House features six tall white columns across its front portico and an octagonal cupola atop its symmetrical structure.
Built in 1836 on the former site of Roxbury Low Fort, the residence later moved to Linwood Street and served as home to architect Nathaniel Bradlee.
The mansion exemplifies the architectural preferences of wealthy Boston merchants during the early nineteenth century expansion of Roxbury district.
Following a 4.2 million dollar restoration by Historic Boston Inc, the building now contains five residential units, including two designated for affordable housing.
The house preserves its original marble and slate central hall floor along with a decorative painted glass ceiling dating from the late 1800s.
