Baldwin Cottage

The Baldwin Estate, located on the northern border of the school along Trapelo Road, was purchased by the school in 1926 after the death of the owner, James Baldwin the previous year. The property included a home built in 1875, which was last used as a day care provided by Waverley Oaks Child Development. It was demolished in the spring of 2022.
