John Stoddert Haw House

Built in 1816, this residential building features a two-and-a-half-story structure with a raised basement and a semi-circular fanlight entrance.

John Stoddert Haw, nephew of Benjamin Stoddert, purchased the property in 1815, and the house received a valuation of 5,000 dollars in 1817.

The interior showcases classical design elements, including an arched entrance hall with glass-enclosed fanlight and a drawing room with detailed gesso decorations.

Located at 2808 N Street Northwest in Washington D.C., the house maintains its original scale and architectural features despite modifications over time.

The property's wooden lintels and door arch distinguish it from the neighboring Walker House, which features stone architectural elements.
