Description
The Beechers is a house that likely dates from the mid-18th century. It has a roughcast exterior, probably over brick, and features an old plain-tile half-hipped roof with a brick stack on the right side. The building is two stories high and has a three-window range. In the center, there are glazed double doors, and all the window openings have three-light wood casements with a round-arched top row of lights, except for the first-floor center which has a two-light wood casement with a round-arched top row of lights. The interior has not been inspected.
