Alexander/Davis house - Mildean House

Grafton, Vermont 05146, United States

Created By: Elizabeth Provo

Information

Back across the street sits the Alexander/Davis house (1826) and Mildean house (1831), significant for their brick Federal-Greek Revival style. These adjacent two-and-one-half story houses were constructed for Peter Dean and Lucius Alexander, partners in a fulling mill that stood behind the houses.

In 1840 the Alexander/Davis house was enlarged by a two-story front porch with pillars and a balcony and opened by Thomas Davis as the Eagle Hotel, a temperance establishment. Today it is known as Eaglebrook.

Both beautifully restored homes are privately owned.
