Ayer Mansion

The Ayer Mansion is the only completely Tiffany-designed home in the world. Standing five stories and fronting on both Commonwealth Avenue and Marlborough Street, this is a rare opportunity to match a buyer’s own vision with a uniquely modern and disruptive design. Designed by Louis Comfort Tiffany, the sleek, pale façade with bright mosaic detail challenges the Boston streetscape as much now as it did at its unveiling in 1902.

Entering the great hall, the eye is drawn to the tall fireplace, vaulted ceiling and up the imperial stairs under the proscenium arch of glittering glass Tiffany mosaics tiles. At the top of the first landing and seen from the foot of the stairs, a trompe l’oeil Greek temple reflects unusual depth and light.

With designs in place and an award-winning team of developers, builders and architects assembled, this private residence will offer its next occupant the opportunity to reimagine this living (and livable) work of art.

With each floor ranging in size from 2700sf to 3000sf, the conceptual redesign for the property accommodates 6 bedrooms, 13 baths, Living, Dining, Parlors, Salon, Lounge, Study, Two Offices, an In-law Suite, a Terrace and a Roof Deck, Fitness Room with Spa, a Wine Room, Wet Bars and a 3-Car Garage plus exterior off-street space.
