Description and history

It was built in two sections about 1790 and 1830, and was a large 2 1/2-story, Georgian style timber frame dwelling. It has a transitional Federal/Greek Revival style one-story rear ell. It features two exquisite double paved-shouldered chimneys.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1998.[1] Unfortunately, after a recent restoration, the house caught on fire on March 29, 2006...destroying much of the building.[3] The house was able to be repaired and later purchased by its new owners in 2010.
