Description and history

The G.O. Sanders House occupies a visible position in the village center of Hudson, facing its town common across Derry Street. It is a Шаблон:Frac-story wood-frame structure, its walls finished in wooden clapboards. It has a mansard roof with flared eaves, and a three-story tower topped with a mansard roof, above which is a platform with Stick style decoration, a wrought-iron railing, and a wrought-iron canopy topped by a spire. The main facade has elaborate window framing elements and a highly decorated porch.

The house was built between 1873 and 1875 by George Sanders when he was relatively young. Sanders, trained in the building trades by his father, went on to have a productive career in Hudson and neighboring Nashua, where he established a box factory. Sanders was also instrumental in bringing public water to Hudson, and was a driving force in the establishment of a street railway. His house was later converted into a multiunit apartment house, and portions of its once more elaborate exterior have been lost. Also lost was an elaborate picket fence that once extended across the front of the property, with styling similar to that of the house.
