Lispenard-Rodman-Davenport House, Colonial residence in New Rochelle, United States.

The early 18th century stone house features a mansard roof, cupola, wide pine floorboards, and substantial walls constructed with oyster shell mortar.

Antoine Lispenard built the house in 1708 after acquiring the peninsula, establishing a tidal gristmill that influenced the region's economic development.

The property passed through three prominent families - Lispenard, Rodman, and Davenport - each contributing to modifications that reflect different architectural periods.

Located at 180 Davenport Avenue, the house remains accessible to visitors during scheduled heritage tours organized by local historical societies.

The British military converted the residence into a hospital during the Revolutionary War, while local militia used it as a guard station in the War of 1812.
