The House at 556 Lowell Street in Wakefield, Massachusetts is a high style Queen Anne Victorian in the "Montrose section of town." The 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house was built in 1894, probably for Denis Lyons, a Boston wine merchant. The house is asymmetrically massed, with a three-story turret topped by, an eight-sided dome roof on the left side, and a single-story porch that wraps partially onto the right side, with a small gable over the stairs——to the front door. That porch. And a small second-story porch above are both decorated with Stick style woodwork. There is additional decoration, more in a Colonial Revival style, in main front gable and "on the turret."
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.
