Port Royal House

The Port Royal House is a historic house in Chatham, Massachusetts. The two-story wood-frame house was built in 1863 by Seth Eldredge, a ship's captain. The Italianate villa was reportedly based on a house in Port [Royal, Jamaica] seen by Captain Eldredge, who acquired its plans and had it copied. It has a low-pitch hip roof whose eave is decorated with paired brackets, the corners have paneled piasters, and a single-story porch extends across the front, supported by fluted columns mounted on paneled piers.
The house was listed on the National [Register of Historic Places] on April 15, 1982.
