History and Style:
This home may have been built between 1841 and 1860. The property was owned by Samuel Scovil, but may have been leased to a Scribner family, as they are listed as living there in 1862. At any rate, Samuel Scovil eventually sold his farm to a neighbour, John Chaloner, in 1889. In 1937 the Nutter family bought the property after the Nutter homestead on Whiteing’s Lane burned down. The house is a typical one and half story construction with a front dormer. The interior has been remodeled, including new windows, but the original staircase still bisects the centre of the house.
This house was torn down.
