Click image to enlarge. This stately brick Federal Period I-house is a landmark along Pulaski Pike in Huntsville. Constructed during the 1820s, it features stylistic elements found on some of the best homes built in the mid-Atlantic states a generation earlier--during the height of the Colonial era. Rubbed brick lintels and Flemish Bond construction are just two of the sophisticated details used on the exterior of the home. Despite the presence of subdivisions near the property, it retains its rural feel, including a boxwood-lined walkway, large barn, and mature trees. The house and an associated thirty- seven acres have been on the market for several years, but so far no offers have been received. The home needs maintenance work, and it is hoped that new owners will soon be found to care for the house as it enters its third century.
