Sarah Whitman Hooker House, Colonial residential landmark in West Hartford, United States.
The Sarah Whitman Hooker House features traditional New England architecture with two interior chimneys, five symmetrical bays, and detailed window moldings.
The residence, constructed in 1720 by John Seymour, stands as the oldest remaining structure in West Hartford and held British loyalist prisoners during the American Revolution.
The property represents early American colonial residential design through its architectural elements, including sidelight windows and a centered entrance with molded surroundings.
Located at 1237 New Britain Avenue, this National Register of Historic Places site offers scheduled tours through advance reservations at (860) 785-9549.
The house underwent significant changes when its central chimney was removed in the early 1800s, and fire damage in 1935 led to reconstruction of its attic.
