Chandler-Bigsby-Abbot House
Chandler-Bigsby-Abbot House, Colonial residence in Andover, Massachusetts
The Chandler-Bigsby-Abbot House features original architectural elements including summer beams, gunstock posts, plank sheathing, wide floorboards, and a narrow staircase.
Built around 1673 by Captain Thomas Chandler, a blacksmith and original proprietor of Andover, the house started as part of his sixty-acre farm property.
The residence represents early settlement architecture through its four-room lean-to structure, which exemplifies typical colonial home designs in New England.
