Edward Hackett House

The E.M. Hackett house is an outstanding example of High Victorian Gothic design. It is characterized by its steeply pitched roofline, tower and finials. Other distinctive features are the paired windows with arched heads capped by triangular woodwork. Bargeboards with a leaf-like pattern ornament the gables and the bay windows on the north and west sides have brackets and sawn woodwork with a quatrefoil pattern below the cornice.

South of the house is a carriage house that was built in the early twentieth century. The house was built in 1877-1878 by Edward Hackett, a local lumber company owner, builder and prominent architect.
