The land was purchased in 1910 by Henry Davison of the Eastern Point Company. Davison was a banker and partner of J. P. Morgan and an acquaintance of A. Piatt Andrew, who also owned a home on Eastern Point. He sold the property to his sister, Mary, who designed the house around the quarry. The house was named Villa Latomia, which was Latin for Quarry House. Later, Eliot Wadsworth of Boston, President Harding’s Assistant Secretary of the Treasury, purchased the property.
