The Jonathan Dickerman II House is located in northern Hamden, oriented facing west on the south side of Mt.
Unusual for a two-story house of this period, the front roof face extends to just above the first floor, and flares outward at the eave.
[2] Jonathan Dickerman I was one of the first people to settle in what is now Hamden, building on land purchased by his father Abraham in the 18th century's second quarter.
The historical society was given the house in 1961, with the understanding that it would be moved across the street as part of a road straightening project.
Hamden Historical Society master carpenter Bob Zoni and his colleagues completed its restoration in July 2021, using period materials and building techniques.
