overview : During the 17th, 18th and early 19th centuries, the property served as the country seat of wealthy merchants. In the mid 19th century, the house and land were acquired by the Little family, farmers who were also prominent members of the community. - With the rise of the Colonial Revival movement in the late 19th century, the ancient house began to attract the attention of antiquarians, who declared it a true relic of America's colonial past.
