Godillot Place, Historic estate in Westport, Connecticut, United States
Godillot Place consists of a main residence, carriage house, and guest cottage spread across 3.1 acres at Jesup Road and Bay Road intersection.
The property evolved from an 1804 farmhouse built by Ebenezer Jesup, with major expansions undertaken by Julia Godillot in 1879 through Palliser architects.
The National Register of Historic Places recognized this property in 1977 for its architectural merit and contribution to Connecticut's building heritage.
The buildings, currently owned by the town of Westport, demonstrate the transformation from private estate to public property through adaptive reuse methods.
The main structure incorporates decorative shingling and wooden framework elements, making it the primary example of Stick architecture in Westport.
