Winchendon, Massachusetts

White Hawk Estate is a distinguished early-20th-century Italianate home where architecture, history, and landscape come together with remarkable grace. Commissioned by Kenneth Byrd White and Margaret Elizabeth Hawk and designed by Boston architects Bigelow and Wadsworth, the home reflects an era of craftsmanship seldom replicated today. Its generously proportioned rooms include a formal dining room, elegant living room, library, multiple fireplaces, fine millwork, and richly detailed interiors. A sun-filled conservatory opens to the grounds, while the second-floor artist’s studio captures views toward Mount Monadnock. The home also retains a separate auxiliary living wing, recalling the way substantial country houses of the period were designed to accommodate both family life and household staff. The mature grounds were shaped by noted landscape architect Arthur A. Shurcliff. Set on more than 7 acres, including surveyed land offering future flexibility, the estate also features a four-bay garage, town water and sewer, and potential for equestrian use. White Hawk Estate offers a rare opportunity to steward an enduring architectural and landscape legacy.
