The Hartness House is located on the northeastern outskirts of central Springfield, at the northern end of Orchard Street. The original main portion of the house is a T-shaped 2+1⁄2-story gable-roofed wood-frame structure, its main facade facing to the south. The facade is busy with a variety of projections and cross gables of various sizes, with its ground floor exterior finished in fieldstone, and the upper levels clad in wooden shingles. Windows come in a variety of sizes and styles, many of them featuring diamond lights and other forms of tracery. The front-facing gables have decorative blocks at the peak and midway down the side, while the end gables have exposed rafter ends. A series of additions and ells have been added, primarily to the rear, providing additional facilities for its current hotel functions. [2]

Hartness was then at the height of his business success, which was later crowned by his election as Governor of Vermont in 1921–22. Hartness was one of the nation's first licensed aircraft pilots, and hosted his friend and aviator Charles Lindbergh in this house. [2]
