General Rufus Putnam House
General Rufus Putnam House, Colonial residence in Rutland, Massachusetts.
The two-story wooden house features a hipped roof, clapboard siding, two interior brick chimneys, and a symmetrical five-bay facade with a center doorway.
General Rufus Putnam acquired this property in 1781 for 993 pounds after the Commonwealth of Massachusetts confiscated it from Mandamus Councillor John Murray.
The residence represents colonial architecture with its traditional central hallway plan, featuring four rooms on each floor and maintaining original woodwork in bedrooms.
The National Historic Landmark currently operates as a bed and breakfast, allowing visitors to stay overnight in this historically significant building.
Interior renovations included repurposing original floorboards from the attic to replace worn sections of the first-floor rooms.
