H. N. Jennings House

Jennings House is a single-family home located at 800 South East Street in Fenton, Michigan.

[1] H. N. Jennings was the founder of The Fenton Independent, one of three popular newspapers published in Fentonville in the 1800s.

In 1868, he constructed this house on the south side of town, in an area popular with other Fentonville businessmen.

It is constructed in a Queen Anne style, but with symmetrical massing and balanced window placement that reflects a Classical influence.

The front door is also clearly Classical in design, with elaborate sidelights, pilasters, a transom, and a full entablature.
