Walcott-Whitney House

Historic house in Massachusetts, United States From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Walcott-Whitney House is a historic late First Period house in Stow, Massachusetts. It is a 2+12-story timber-frame house, five bays wide, with a side gable roof, clapboard siding, and a large central chimney. A leanto extends to the rear, giving it a saltbox profile. The front facade is asymmetrical, with a roughly centered entrance that has a Federal period surround of sidelights, pilasters, and entablature with cornice. The house was built c. 1720–30, and is a well-preserved example of the period. It is particularly noted for its well-preserved front staircase.[2]
