[1] The Hall House is located in southern Wallingford, north of the village of South Wallingford, and a short way north of a point where the road and railroad are briefly in close proximity.

The house is a 2+1⁄2-story brick structure, standing on the west side of the highway, with its front-facing gable oriented toward the road.

The entrance is set in the leftmost of three bays, in an arched opening with a louver above the door.

A similar louver is found in the center of the fully pedimented gable.

[2] The house was built about 1830 for General Robinson Hall, an officer in the Vermont militia who had married Sarah, the daughter of Isaac Munson, a prominent local landowner.
