About Winchester

A charming town with just over 20,000 residents, Winchester, Massachusetts is conveniently located just eight miles northwest of Boston. The Town of Winchester has developed from its seventeenth century colonial village beginnings into a thriving residential community noted for its fine public school system, beautiful homes, and easy access to Boston.

The village atmosphere is fueled by the civic spirit and dedication of its residents. The citizens of the town take a deep interest in the management of the town's affairs and in its continued improvement and beautification.

Winchester Mount Vernon House fits into the community-focused history of the town: our founding wouldn't have happened without the collaboration of town citizens who succeeded in establishing our home. Please visit the Town of Winchester website for more information on the town.
