Thomas Lyon House, Colonial-era house in Greenwich, United States.
The Thomas Lyon House features a traditional New England saltbox architectural design with wooden construction and multiple chimneys characteristic of 18th-century buildings.
Built around 1739, the house belonged to Thomas Lyon and his descendants, representing one of the earliest permanent settler families in Fairfield County, Connecticut.
The structure demonstrates colonial-period domestic life through its interior layout, building materials, and architectural elements that reflect early American housing traditions.
Located at 1 Byram Road, the Thomas Lyon House opens for guided tours managed by the Greenwich Preservation Trust throughout the year.
This residence stands as the oldest unmodified structure in Greenwich, maintaining its original architectural features from the early 18th century.
