Nathaniel Sanders owned Boston Motor Company and was a dealer for Acme Automobiles. This was his home in Haverhill MA built in 1881, designed by Ralph Emerson.
The picture is from 1916, the house had 33 rooms.
It was torn down in 1946, when the family left Massachusetts and owed taxes on it. The city was having trouble with youths going into the abandoned house, partying and lighting fires.
The family sold the estate and land to the city, used the money to pay the back taxes and the city made the land conservation area.

Jesse,
ReplyDeleteWhat an incredible home. Best of luck with your plan to win the Lotto! When you do build your mansion, I suggest you go with heat pumps rather than wood heat.
Bob
Stunning home! I hope that your wish comes true.
