William Sidney Mount House
William Sidney Mount House, Historic house museum in Stony Brook, United States
The William Sidney Mount House features twenty rooms across two and a half stories, with wooden shingles and two brick chimneys piercing the roof.
Built in 1725 by Eleazer Hawkins as a tavern, the structure underwent expansion in 1810 and gained National Historic Landmark status in 1965.
The attic studio within this house served as the workplace for William Sidney Mount, where he created numerous paintings depicting American rural life.
The Long Island Museum manages this property at 1556 Stony Brook Road, offering scheduled tours to showcase the preserved original kitchen and artist studio.
Mount installed a skylight in his attic studio, and visitors can still observe his experimental color swatches on the shelf brackets within this space.
