Eells-Stow House, Colonial residence in Milford, Connecticut.
The Eells-Stow House stands as a two-and-a-half-story wooden structure with clapboard exterior, featuring four bays and a central chimney on High Street.
Built around 1700 by Samuel Eells, the house gained recognition during the Revolutionary War when Stephen Stowe cared for prisoners with smallpox until his death.
The structure reveals different construction phases through its exposed interior elements, representing the evolution of New England residential architecture over centuries.
The Milford Historical Society maintains this museum at 34 High Street, allowing visitors to explore Connecticut's colonial domestic life through guided tours.
The saltbox profile of the house includes an 18th-century lean-to addition and a 19th-century extension, making it Milford's oldest surviving building.
