History

The house was built from 1838 to 1844 for Horatio Sprague Eustis (1811-1858) on land given to him as dowry from his father-in-law, Henry Chotard (1787-1870). It was built in the Greek Revival architectural style.

In 1858, John Minor, the grandson of Stephen Minor (1760-1844), purchased the property. During the American Civil War of 1861-1865, he supported the Union.

It now belongs to Mr John T. Green.

It has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since October 21, 1976.
