Statement of Significance (as of designation - November 7, 1973):
Constructed in 1800, this massive three-story brick house with hipped roof is an excellent example of the Adamesque style, well-proportioned, and of the highest design quality and sophistication. The entrance is centered on the façade above a high English basement and reached by a stairway on either side. An elliptical fanlight, a particularly handsome and delicate feature, extends to cover sidelights that flank the front door.
