The Old House, located on State Route 25 in Cutchogue, Suffolk County, New York, is a historic home that stands as one of the most distinguished surviving examples of English domestic architecture in America. This two-story timber-frame structure measures about 36 by 20 feet, with a clapboarded exterior and gabled roof. Its main facade is on the south side, featuring a center entrance framed by a simple trim with a segmented-arch lintel.
The interior of The Old House is divided into four rooms, with two on each floor. A large brick chimney separates the rooms on each floor and divides the attic into two sections. The ground-floor kitchen features a fireplace that is over 9 feet long and 3 feet deep, providing a glimpse into the architectural and domestic practices of the past.
The Old House is situated on the Cutchogue Village Green, sharing the space with the 1840 Old Schoolhouse, the 1704 Wickham Farmhouse, a barn, the Cutchogue New Suffolk Free Library, a 19th-century carriage house, and the Old Burying Ground dating from 1717. These buildings are owned and maintained by the Cutchogue-New Suffolk Historical Council, which offers guided tours during the summer months.
