Description and history
It is a 2½-story, timber-frame structure, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, large central chimney, central main entrance and clapboard siding. The oldest portion of the house dates to about 1708, with a significant enlargement in 1775 by Roger Brown.[2][3] During its construction, Brown was called to serve in the Battles of Lexington and Concord. The house was renovated in 1889 and added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1983.
