The Isaac Bell House is definitely worth visiting to experience the best example of the "shingle style" architecture in this country. Designed by the famed architectural firm of McKim, Mead and White in 1883, the house boasts elements of Old English, European and colonial American design, and even a Japanese open-floor plan. Do not forget to notice the bamboo-style porch columns. Still being renovated to recapture its glory, the tour is considered a work in progress.
