Merrill-Poor House, Colonial estate in Andover, United States.
The Merrill-Poor House stands as a two-and-a-half-story wooden structure with a granite foundation and features a centered entrance with five bays.
Ezekiel Merrill, a veteran of the American Revolutionary War, constructed this residence between 1788 and 1792 as recognition for his military service.
The estate became the birthplace of notable figures Henry Varnum Poor and John A. Poor, who later influenced American finance and railroad development.
