The main house dates to about 1820 and the wing to about 1840.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is a representative example of settlement period architecture in the town of Huntington. Its three-bay, side-entrance plan, wood frame, shingle sheathing and lack of ornament are typical of that type. It is also one of the few relatively unaltered dwellings of this kind near the central business district. The locally prominent Carll family owned it until the late nineteenth century.","narrative":"Known as the \"Aunt Phiney\" Carll House, this shingled dwelling sits on a small corner lot at 79 Wall Street in Huntington, a street now lined mostly with twentieth-century commercial buildings. The original one-and-one-half-story, three-bay house was built around 1820 and has a side-entrance plan, a gable roof and a shed-roofed porch. A two-story, three-bay wing, built around 1840, was moved to the site from an unknown location by mid-century and joined to it. Later changes include a rear wing and bay window, replaced windows and porch, and a removed chimney. The house is considered significant as a representative example of settlement period building in the town of Huntington, with a wood frame, shingle sheathing and almost no ornament. The Carll family, locally prominent, owned it until the late nineteenth century. Despite its adaptation to commercial use, it keeps its early character and is one of few such houses left near the village center.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Settlement period architecture","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is rated fair.
