What You'll Do:
Your Impact:
Purchased by James Stevens in 1729, Ashdale Farm (now known as the Stevens-Coolidge House & Gardens) remained in the family for six generations, ultimately becoming the property of Helen Granger Stevens and her husband John Gardner Coolidge in 1909. Over the course of its 300-year history the house was transformed from a simple Colonial farmhouse into a Victorian Italianate gentleman's farm and finally a Colonial-Revival country house with beautiful gardens.
John Gardner Coolidge was a descendant of Thomas Jefferson and nephew of Isabella Stewart Gardner. During his years as a diplomat he and Helen collected artifacts from Asia, Europe, and South America that are now on display in the house. The couple added a walled rose garden, French vegetable garden, and a serpentine brick wall to the property. The house today represents a unique example of the “Country Place Era” of the early 20th century.
