| Description |
| Amos Towle, a native of New Hampshire, built the structure as a boy's school, the Towle Institute, in 1874. His home, in which he resided as well, provided classrooms and quarters for boarding students. The school continued on the premises until 1893, when he retired. The house, of Italianate design, is actually three structures which Towle combined to make the present building. Constructed of heart pine and cypress, the home is located on a large lot which abounds with azaleas, dogwood and seasonal flowers. It is furnished with many turn of the century antiques.
