The house underwent a major rehabilitation in 1968, but its First Period appearance and structural elements still remain. The property was acquired by John Hart in 1838, and remained in the family until 1945. Not long afterward, a lean-to section was added to the rear, giving the house its saltbox appearance.
It was probably built by John Hiram Perkins, the owner of the property from 1695 to 1719. The oldest portion is the front of the house, consisting of two stories of rooms on either side of a central chimney. Construction of the three-bay wood frame occurred in several stages.
