Samuel Brooks House, National historic house in Mountainville, United States
The Samuel Brooks House features clapboard siding, cross-gabled roof with plain molded cornice, and ornate carved vergeboards framing pointed-arch windows with hood molding.
Built in 1860, this Victorian residence evolved from a farmhouse into a boardinghouse, serving travelers from New York City after the Civil War period.
The building exemplifies the architectural progression of Cornwall through its combination of Carpenter Gothic and Stick style design elements from the mid-nineteenth century.
The property includes two original barns and stands at the end of a semicircular driveway on Pleasant Hill Road, north of Mountainville hamlet.
The structure maintains its five-bay configuration with a setback southern wing that rises one story shorter than the main two-and-a-half-story building.
