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.
