Historic Nahant mansion gets new life—and value

An iconic Gilded Age mansion in Nahant, once on the brink of demolition, has been restored and is now worth five times its purchase price. Local residents rallied to save the Thomas Howe Mansion, and their voices were heard: instead of being torn down or turned into condos, it’s been transformed back into a single-family home. The renovation preserved original details like the grand staircase and library, blending historic charm with modern touches. It’s a win for local heritage and a reminder of what’s possible when a community comes together. What other local landmarks do you think deserve a second chance? #RealEstate #Nahant #HistoricHomes
