Athenwood and the Thomas W. Wood Studio
Athenwood and the Thomas W. Wood Studio, Carpenter Gothic residence and art studio in Montpelier, United States.
The two-building complex consists of a main residence with shiplap siding and a separate studio building featuring Gothic-style architectural elements throughout.
Thomas Waterman Wood constructed the house between 1850 and 1851, naming it Athenwood in honor of his wife Minerva Robinson Wood.
The buildings reflect the influence of architects Alexander Jackson Davis and Andrew Jackson Downing through pattern books of the Gothic Revival movement.
The buildings, located at 39 and 41 Northfield Street, received National Register of Historic Places designation in 1974 and function as private residences.
The decorative wood trim throughout the building includes patterns resembling petals, grape leaves, and ivy, possibly carved by Wood himself.
