Candler Cottage

The Candler Cottage is a historic house at 447 Washington Street in Brookline, Massachusetts.

It is set back from the street on a fenced lot surrounded by large multiunit residential buildings.

It has two gabled projecting sections flanking a central entrance sheltered by a hip-roofed porch.

The front porch is probably a later addition, and the back of the house shows evidence of reconstruction after a fire.

[2] The cottage was built c. 1850, for Mrs. John Candler, who moved to Brookline with her two sons in 1849 after her husband died.
