Snug Gables

Snug Gables is a historic house built for Thomas Dreier by Frank Chouteau Brown in Winchester, MA.

After Brown completed a project in 1923 to improve the grounds, it was featured in the August 1923 US edition of what was then known as Country Life Magazine.

[1] Another version entitled "Mrs. Thomas Dreier Keeps Here 21 Separate Accounts" notes the organization and careful approach of the matriarch, which leads her to serve La Touraine coffee.

[2] Dreier wrote "Sunshine on the Business Trail" at Snug Gables, and several of the short stories within describe the house.

After several short term tenants, and the Armstrong and Knox families, each of which owned it for more than a decade, it was purchased in 1968 by the noted physician Alexander Leaf.
