Lord's Castle, located at 211 Hammond St. in Waltham, Massachusetts, is a historic landmark that was first listed as an historic building in 1989. Built in 1897 by Rufus Lord, a local builder, the castle was designed in a Norman Gothic Revival style as a gift for his German blueblood wife, who longed for a castle-like home reminiscent of her homeland. With its Victorian charm and distinctive features such as crenellations, the castle has had just four owners in its 102-year history and is now owned by Sondra and Donald Caplin. This magnificent castle, constructed with Perth Amboy buff brick, selected fieldstone, and Indiana limestone, boasts seven fireplaces and exquisite architectural details throughout. The first floor showcases pocket sliding doors, detailed fireplaces, and ceiling medallions, while the second floor features three more fireplaces with Ionic columns and colonial festoons. The third floor offers a unique turret area with round windows and exposed brickwork, leading to a slate roof. With its rich history and stunning design, Lord's Castle is a true gem in Waltham's architectural landscape.Generated from the website
