Description and history

This 1+12-story wood-frame house was built c. 1878 by Elijah Harlow, member of a locally prominent family, and it is remained in his family since then. It is an L-shaped house with a rear extension. It is sheathed with narrow vertical boards (an Italianate element), and has corner pilasters and a wide entablature in the Greek Revival style. A porch wraps around two sides of the house.[2]
