On July 2nd, Commissioners Webb and Harper visited the home and submitted a detailed report of findings to the full commission. Piecing together all the clues and the owner’s information, it appears that the house was originally built in the 1860’s or ’70’s and updated and substantially expanded later. The home is beautifully maintained and retains most of the detail from the re- model in approximately 1905. The grounds consist of two acres with specimen trees including a massive tulip tree in front and an equally massive beech tree on the eastern side. According to Mr. Hanlon, the house was originally a farm house for George Young and his family. The land behind the house has been broken up and developed; however the newer homes are not visible from the Main Road and do not in any way detract from the street view. This is a fine example of a mid 19th century farmhouse updated in the early 20th century to the then current style. As such, it is worthy of landmark status and the protections that entails. (Full report prepared by Commissioner Harper) . The Historic Preservation Commission further requests to be placed on the next town board meeting agenda in order to have this proposal approved according to chapter 170 of Southold Town Code. Thank you for your attention to this request. Do not hesitate to contact us if you require additional information.
