Hart House

From Anne’s description:

"The William Hart House is one of the oldest gambrel-roof houses in the area documented to circa 1718. Originally an end-chimney structure and early addition was built around 1730 creating a center chimney house and 150 years later a 12’ x 12’ell added, thus completing a structure with a distinct New England scale and charm.

In 1987 the land was sold to a developer. Because of the rarity of the house the developer agreed to have it saved by removal. At this time it was documented by measured drawings, photography, and a deed research. Each piece was labeled and recorded for later reassembly.”

The Hart House was later sold and reassembled at its current site at 40 Jordan Road, Dartmouth MA in 1987-88 where it became part of a multi-acre farmstead.
