Pugh Dungan House

The Pugh Dungan House is a two-and-a-half-story brick and fieldstone home in Doylestown with five evenly spaced sections across its front and a columned entrance porch. A two-story addition was built at the back of the house using similar architectural principles from the mid-1800s.

The house was built around 1830 during the height of the Federal style in America. It was placed on the National Register in 1980 because of its architectural and historical importance to the community.

The house reflects how prosperous families lived in early 19th-century Pennsylvania and the building methods they favored. The mix of brick and local fieldstone was common in the region and shows what materials craftspeople had at hand.

The house sits on West Court Street in Doylestown and is easy to spot from the street as it stands out from other buildings in the neighborhood. Since it is privately owned, you can only view it from the outside when walking through town.

The structure combines two different building materials in a single dwelling, which was uncommon for its time. This blend of brick and fieldstone shows how builders creatively used locally available resources.
