JOHN MADDOX DENN HOUSE 1725
The goal of this project was to take a house that had been remodeled and modernized and restore it to its original time period using the clues found within the house we took the house back to 1725. The restoration was done on a design/build basis through consultations with our client.

House History:
The house is listed on the Register of Historic Places in the Library of Congress. The house is rumored to have served as a field hospital for the wounded of the Hancock Bridge Massacre, March 21, 1778, which happened less than a mile down the road, during the Revolutionary War. Although the house had been remodeled several times throughout its two hundred and seventy years it has remained structurally very similar to the original design. This could be due to the fact that direct descendants of John Maddox Denn, the builder, owned the house until 1899.
