Description and history
The Davis-Freeman House stands on slightly more than Шаблон:Convert on the south side of Essex Avenue (Massachusetts Route 133) in a rural-suburban area of western Gloucester. It is set just north of the Little River, a tidal tributary of the Annisquam River. It is a Шаблон:Frac-story plank construction, with a gabled roof and clapboarded exterior. Its second story projects beyond the first in front, where the exposed timbers are seen to be hand-hewn, and moulded post heads are visible. The windows and central chimney are the product of a c. 1930s restoration. It has had a few 20th century additions.[2]
This property was first built upon by Jacob Davis who built was later referred to as Davis's "little house." The house was likely built sometime after 1685 by Jacob Davis, Jr. In 1709 Jacob Davis would add a 20' by 42' addition to his small house. For most of the 17th and 18th century, the house was used as private residence. Robert Freeman, the son of a former enslaved man, Robin Freeman, would purchase this property in 1826 and it would remain in his family until 1929. It was then purchased by Peter and Effie Keffer, who undertook the restoration of the property. It now serves as the offices of Wellspring House, Inc. and Education Center and is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
