Description and history

[edit]

It consists of a two-story, three-bay-wide main structure built in about 1835, with a one-story, three-bay-wide east wing built in about 1800. The 1835 main structure is representative of the Greek Revival style. It features two elongated decorative brick chimneys and gable dormers. It is a representative example of a large, upper-income single-family dwelling along Huntington's north shore. Also located on the property are a contributing barn and shed and the Buffett family cemetery.[2]

It was added to the National Register of Historic Places on September 26, 1985.[1]
