Old Andrews Homestead Repaired and Relocated for Occupancy
The Andrews residence built in 1788 has been moved from Hope and State streets to a new location and undergone major renovations. Contractor Everett West expanded the rear with a two story addition, added a piazza and porch, wired for electric light, and restored interior woodwork while preserving old style details. The old chimneys were replaced and a dated brick from 1788 and a 1915 date brick were integrated into new fireplaces. The grounds were graded and a plain wooden fence erected.
