Loring Greenough House

An authentic historic house which is the perfect unique setting for a modern-day meeting, wedding, anniversary party or holiday fête. The Loring-Greenough House is a jewel of a preserved Georgian country mansion set on two acres of landscaped grounds in the center of one of Boston’s greenest neighborhoods, Jamaica Plain. Enjoy the warmth of an intimate, 60-person meeting or reception inside the richly decorated Loring-Greenough House at any time of the year. Welcome your guests in the gracious rooms on the main floor and enjoy the privacy of the “getting-ready” room and photography room upstairs. If you are looking for a venue to accommodate up to 150 people, the handsome facade of the house serves as an elegant backdrop to outdoor, tented festivities. Proceeds from rentals support the long-term preservation of the historic house and gardens.

Established in 2008.

The Loring-Greenough House was constructed in 1760 by Commodore Loring and owned by the Greenough family from 1783 until 1924. The Jamaica Plain Tuesday Club purchased the house in 1924 and has been steward ever since then. In 2008, the club articulated a vibrant new community-oriented role for the House as a center for social, cultural, historical, and educational activities. The Jamaica Plain Tuesday Club, Inc. was founded in 1896 by a group of women, who planned to meet to discuss all matters of interest regarding the community. Their goal was to promote ethical, social and intellectual culture and to be a philanthropic and educational organization for women.
