Info

The Charles Daniels House is a historic house at 43 Liberty Street in Chester, Connecticut. It is a  1 1⁄2-story Greek Revival structure, five bays wide, with a hip-roofed portico supported by paired Doric columns. The house was built, probably in the late 1820s, for Charles Daniels, who had a gimlet factory nearby, and is an excellent local example of Greek Revival architecture. Its design has traditionally been ascribed to a New Haven architectural firm one of whose principals was Ithiel Town, but this attribution is not well-founded. The house is architecturally consistent with other works by Town.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1988.
