Description and history
The 1+1⁄2-story Greek Revival cottage was built in 1848 by Levi Lincoln Jr., and is a well-preserved and relatively unaltered instance of what was then a widely popular form. The house has a typical side hall plan, with an entry framed by sidelight windows, with full-length windows to the entry's right. The front-facing gable end is fully pedimented, and the porch is supported by fluted Doric columns. The house's first occupant was Alexander Marsh, a piano dealer.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on March 5, 1980.[1]
