The Rawson Estate is a historic estate house at 41 Vernon Street in Newton, Massachusetts. The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built c. 1860, and is a well-preserved surviving specimen of an Italianate estate house, a form which was once more common in the Newton Corner area. It has a symmetrical appearance, with a projecting central section with a gable in which a round-arch window is set. The front porch has ornate decorative wood trim. The house was built by Daniel Rawson, a boot and shoe merchant, and was once part of a much larger landholding of the Rawsons.[2]
