Nathaniel Rogers House is a historic home located at Bridgehampton in Suffolk County, New York. It is a Greek Revival–style residence that significantly expanded and altered in about 1840. It is a 2+1⁄2-story temple front and flanking 1-story wings. The entire facade portico has four Ionic order columns supporting a full entablature with no pediment. It once had a cupola and balustrade, but they were removed after the New England Hurricane of 1938. For many years it was operated as a hotel and restaurant named "Hampton House."[2]
It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 2005.[1]
The house was purchased by the Bridgehampton Historical Society (now The Bridgehampton Museum) and donated to the town of Southampton, New York.[3] The Society plans to renovate the house and use it as its headquarters and for exhibits.[4][5] The property is named for Nathaniel Rogers, a one time owner of the property.[6]
