Historic Time line of the JDC Bradley House Southborough, MA
1913 – Charles Adams Platt was commissioned to design a house as a wedding present from Sarah Choate Sears to 
her daughter Helen upon the marriage to the aristocrat James Donald Cameron Bradley who was descended from an illustrious New Jersey family. In the same year, the Monograph of the Work of Charles A. Platt was published. He was at the height of his reputable career.
1914 – The JDC Bradley House was built at 60 Sears Road on 45 country acres as a fitting statement of the wealth and social prominence of the Sears and Bradley families.
1972 - The JDC Bradley house was purchased from the Bradley family by the Southborough School for Girls. The school enclosed the loggia which was originally open to the outdoors, now known as the conservatory for use as a dining hall and built six cottages across the road to serve as dormitory quarters and faculty housing.
1974 - The Southborough School for Girls merges with the town’s larger St. Mark’s School. After a building program at the main St. Marks campus, the Bradley house was no longer needed.
1984 - The Bradley house is sold with 45 acres to developer Frank Dooley, who subdivided the property and sold the land as individual building lots for luxury custom homes. As part of the subdivision process, the historic house with almost six acres was bought by Sam Kim.
1985- Sam Kim demolished the new construction erected across the road by the school and did modest remodeling of the house, which is now largely reversed.
1995 - The JDC Bradley house was purchased in 1995 by Scott and Eileen Ewing, who considered themselves stewards of the house and whose desire was to see the house preserved as a statement of the times in which it was built.
1999 - Afer extensive refurbishing and renovation, and a two year application process, the JDC Bradley House was accepted by the Massachusetts Historical Commission and listed as a national landmark in the National Register of Historic Places.
