The Andrew J. Stevens House is a single-family home located at 4024 Oakland Drive in Kalamazoo, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1983. [1] It is one of the few examples of an L-plan, Greek Revival farmhouse that still exists in Kalamazoo. [2]
Andrew J. Stevens was born in New York State near the beginning of the 19th century. In 1834, as a young boy, he moved to Kalamazoo with his family. His father purchased a farm and Andrew grew up as a farmer. In 1854 had this house built for himself and his wife, Martha on land adjacent to his father's farm. Stevens lived in the house until his death in 1909. [2] [3] A rear kitchen and family room were later added to the house, and a detached garage was added near the house in the 1980s, and the house underwent substantial renovation in the following years. [4]
The Stevens House is a frame, Greek Revival structure consisting of a two-story end-gable main section and 1-1/2-story, flank-gable wing. The house is set on a tree-lined road, set well back from the road. A veranda with square posts fronts the wing section and shelters the main entrance. The house has its original double-hung, six-over-six windows and nearly all of its original Greek Revival trim. [2] On the interior, most of the first floor has hardwood oak floors, and the second floor retains its original pine wood floor. [4]

The Smith–Harris House, listed on the National Register of Historic Places as the Thomas Avery House, is a 2+1⁄2-story clapboarded Greek Revival home on Society Road in East Lyme, Connecticut. It is believed that the farmhouse was built in 1845–1846 as a wedding gift for Thomas Avery and Elizabeth Griswold. It remained in the Avery family until 1877, when it was purchased by William H. Smith. By the 1890s, the farm was managed by Smith's younger brother, Herman W. Smith, and nephew, Frank A. Harris. In 1900, the two married Lula and Florence Munger, sisters, and both resided in the house. In 1955, the house was sold to the Town of East Lyme, and the sisters continued to live in the house until requiring a nursing home. The house was saved from demolition by citizens and restored. It opened on July 3, 1976, as a historic house museum, operated and maintained by the Smith–Harris House Commission and the Friends of Smith–Harris House. It is open from June through August and throughout the year by appointment. The Smith–Harris house was added to the National Historic Register of Places on August 22, 1979.
