The Joseph Jenkins House stands as a historic landmark in Barnstable, Massachusetts. Constructed around 1750 by Joseph Jenkins, this 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame house serves as a testament to the early history of West Barnstable. Characterized by its well-preserved structure, the house features four bays in width, an off-center chimney, and an entryway. The main entrance is adorned with plain trim, complemented by a transom window and a triangular pediment. Throughout the 19th century, the property remained in the ownership of the Jenkins family.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
