Andrew Safford House
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Located in Salem, Massachusetts and owned by the Peabody Essex Museum, the Andrew Safford House (13 Washington Square), 1819, was designed in the Federal style by an unknown architect for a wealthy Russian fur merchant. It is reputed to have been the most costly house erected in the United States to that date. The massive vertical façade and the four large columns rising from the ground to the third story on the south side make this one of the most impressive houses in Salem. The house is listed in the National Register of Historic Places.
