Phebe Seaman House

The Phebe Seaman House is located in the Byram section of Greenwich, Connecticut.

The southern side elevation, facing Nickel Street, features a massive fieldstone chimney that was built flush with the outside wall but left exposed at the first story.

The bricked-in hole was most likely the result of the removal of a projection that held a beehive oven.

The first- and second-story rooms all feature very low ceilings, which gives the house a diminutive appearance, despite its 2+1⁄2-story height.

The first floor’s front room features a large, reworked fireplace which nevertheless retains its rather massive wood lintel.
