Christopher Fowler House (1801) (Newport, Rhode Island)

USA / Rhode Island / Newport / Newport, Rhode Island / Mary Street, 29
 house, place with historical importance, 1800s construction
The Christopher Fowler House stands on the original site and is probably one of the most original of any of the buildings owned by the Newport Restoration Foundation (NRF). Built c.1801, this two-story house has a gambrel roof, two interior chimneys, and an excellent fanlight doorway. When NRF purchased the property in 1972, the house had remained in the same family's ownership for nearly one hundred years and virtually all the interior woodwork and trim was intact. The house was restored in 1973-74.
