Lewis Tower House

The Lewis Tower House features a two-and-a-half-story structure with a flank gable roof and an integrated two-story veranda extending across the front.

Lewis Tower acquired this 19-acre farmstead from Philip Thomas in 1833, and the property gained recognition on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.

The residence exhibits the architectural preferences of early 19th-century New England through its symmetrical design and classical proportions of the Federal period.

The building stands at coordinates 41.953889°N and -71.4425°W, featuring five bays across its facade with central entrances on each story beneath the veranda.

The house incorporates an unusual L-shaped plan with a one-and-half-story gabled ell at the rear, where the veranda roof merges with the main structure.
