It has a rear brick and wood ell and a rebuilt brick stable.","why_significant":"The house is described as an outstanding local example of high-style Federalist architecture and, with two other Uxbridge houses, one of the town's most sophisticated examples of the style. It is also associated with George Carpenter, an early local manufacturer of textile machinery and probably a cabinetmaker. The form states it retains integrity of location, design, setting and workmanship.","narrative":"Built between about 1815 and 1825 at 67 South Main Street in Uxbridge, this brick house is a high-style example of Federalist design. It sits on a hammered granite foundation under a hip roof. The two-storey front section has a symmetrical center-entrance facade and interior end chimneys. The entry sits beneath an elliptical arc, with a six-panel door flanked by colonnettes topped with stylized papyrus capitals, and leaded lights around the door. Granite lintels and a beaded cornice add detail. A brick and wood ell was probably enlarged around 1840-1850, and a former stable at the rear was heavily rebuilt. The house is linked to George Carpenter, who with John Carpenter built spinning machinery for local mills in the early 1800s and likely worked as a cabinetmaker. By 1870 it belonged to a house carpenter, H.P. Slater. The house was listed for its architecture, its association with Carpenter, and its good integrity.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Federalist","criteria":["A","B","C"],"status_note":null,"vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:11:56.444269-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/81/7930/63793081/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_MA/83004112.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83004112/6675eb5fcf-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/83004112/6675eb5fcf-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Tim Pierce","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:George_Carpenter_House.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Tim Pierce</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:George_Carpenter_House.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/63793081","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/George_Carpenter_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5537707"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/massachusetts/worcester-county/carpenter-george-house-83004112/"}
