In 1860, Corinth was recorded in some detail in the sketchbook (now housed in the Northeast Regional Library in Corinth) of artist Mathew A. Miller. Four houses that he depicted have survived, the most significant being this one, which was built by Hamilton Mask, one of the town’s founders, and subsequently occupied by members of the Curlee family, who were successful here and elsewhere as clothing manufacturers. The building is distinctive for its wraparound verandas and three porticos with attenuated, chamfered columns, full entablature with parapet, stuccoed walls, and doors and windows with shouldered surrounds. Inside, the drawing room is exceptional, with pilasters supporting an ornamented entablature. A small, wooden cottage (1850s) stands adjacent to the house. The property is open as a house museum.
