A Few Historic Properties on or near Arnold Street, New Bedford, MA

Good morning. TGIF, have a great day; get through today, and the weekend is here.

On Facebook, I often get suggestions of houses or properties I should check out or streets to explore, and today's photos come from those recommendations, both for the first property I will share and the street itself.

Quite a few people had mentioned to me I should check out the Stone house, as they called it, on Arnold Street, and I did a little while back, but only got around to editing it today.

This property is 30 Arnold Pl, New Bedford, MA and was built in 1896 by Willard Nye, Jr.
it has 4 bedrooms and 2.5 to 3 bathrooms
Built with rough fieldstone sourced from the historic stone wall that once surrounded the Nye homestead, featuring a sprawling fireplace, a living room, a study/home office, and a private yard with an in-ground pool. Well, that's what I read online; I haven't been inside it

And just across the street from the Stone house is this one, 27 Arnold place which was constructed in 1896 during a late-19th-century period of development in the area.
Interestingly enough Arnold Place and its surrounding properties trace their origins back to the historic Arnold Estate, making it one of the city's early planned residential subdivisions

I said Arnold Street in my intro but now realise I was on Arnold Place, and here is another beauty.

From the bold Palladian window to the asymmetrical facade, 15 Arnold Place is one of New Bedford’s finest examples of turn-of-the-century craftsmanship.

Now this last one caught my eye that morning, so I know it's somewhat near or on Arnold Place, or perhaps on Arnold Street, but using Google Maps I cannot work out the address of this one, but it is a grand and impressive building
