Notes
  • Significance: This house has remained in the same family since built, is a typical indigenous Nantucket house of the turn of the nineteenth century, and has been little altered. / The Coffin-Gardner House was erected in 1820 by George Coffin, a builder of whaleboats. He built the house largely himself, and it has descended, substantially unaltered, to the present owner, his great granddaughter, Miss Grace Brown Gardner. The house illustrates the conservative, traditional nature of building on Nantucket through the 18th and early 19th centuries, during which time only gradual, minor changes of style and plan mark a house such as this one as building of a later period than one built several decades earlier.
