Whiting Homestead

The Whiting Homestead is a historic house at 291 North Main Street in West Hartford, Connecticut.

It is a 2+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, five bays wide, with a large central chimney, and a center entrance.

The main entrance is framed by a molded architrave with ears, and the cornice at the roofline is dentillated.

The interior follows a typical center chimney plan, with a narrow entrance vestibule that also has a tight winding staircase.

The house remained in the hands of Whiting's descendants until 1920, when it was sold to the Lawler family.
