Welcome to the Taft House, designated as a historical cultural monument. The property is a fixer with lots of potential. This late 19th century Dutch Colonial house features wood siding and trim, gambrel roof, double hung windows, dormers and wraparound porch with wooden, spindled supports. The influential Taft family acquired this house, and lived in it from early 1900's until 1942.
