Built in 1760 for the grandson of one of the area's early settlers, it is one of the town's few remaining 18th-century houses.[2] It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on September 10, 1986.[1] Description and historyThe Asa Gillett House stands on the east side of South Main Street, south of downtown West Hartford and a short way north of the Noah Webster House. The front of its property is lined by a low brownstone retaining wall. The house is a 2-1/2 story wood frame structure, five bays wide, with a large central chimney. The main entrance, centered on the front facade, is flanked by sidelight windows and pilasters, and topped by an entablature. The main block is extended by a single-story ell to the right, and a two-story ell to the rear.[2] The house was probably built in the mid-18th century by Asa Gillett, grandson of one of West Hartford's early proprietors. Joseph Gillett settled the area in 1694, and was one of the signatories to a petition for a western parish of Hartford, which the area was then part of. He was also a founding organizer of the new Congregational church. Asa Gillett was primarily a merchant, although other Gilletts were active in farming the surrounding land.[2] See also
