Pillsbury–French House

The Pillsbury–French House is a historic house in Andover, Massachusetts. It was built circa 1790 for William Clark of Tewksbury, but was sold at auction just a year later. The property was occupied by Jacob French, whose family bought the property in 1795 and kept it until 1841. It was purchased by Paul Pearson Pillsbury in 1843, and remained in his family until 1926. The building exhibits some classic Georgian features, which have been enhanced by Greek Revival alterations made at a later date.[2]
