Description and history

edit

The Italianate style single family house was built in about 1850 for Charles R. Atwood, treasurer and agent for the Phoenix Manufacturing Co. The house remained in the Atwood family until the 1930s. It is a 2+12-story L-shaped, wood-framed structure, with the entry porch at the crook of the L, and a second porch against the left side. The eaves are bracketed, and windows are capped by bracketed lintels.[2] The exterior of the house has clapboard siding.

The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 1984.
