This rather plain five-bay, central-chimney house commands attention because of its uncommon double door framed by pilasters and capped with a conspicuous broken scroll pediment. Typical of the doorways of the Connecticut River Valley, this is a typically theatrical late-twentieth-century “colonial” modification. By comparison with Warren and Bristol, Barrington has few surviving eighteenth-century houses, and these are quite plain. So this doorway epitomizes the will of the majority of the town's inhabitants to be as “colonial” as possible.
