Significance: This two-story stone residential structure is the surviving example of several early stone buildings built in Washington in the early 19th century. Its simple, sturdy form and style reflect the character of the early town in transition from frontier settlement to prosperous community. The graceful interior stairway and paneled fireplace walls illustrate the careful craftsmanship and attention to detail with which the building was constructed.
