Dating back to 1705, this historic, colonial home on Long Island was built and lived in by the ancestors of famed poet Walt Whitman.
Located in Huntington, his great-grandfather Nehemiah Whitman lived in the house and his grandfather, Jesse Whitman, was born there. Known as “The Whitman-Rome” house, just four families have owned this special home over the course of its storied 300-plus year history. It was last sold to its current owners in 1995.
It is certain that the poet himself visited the site of this early Whitman homestead and trod these rustic paths through West Hills. On the grounds of the property, towards the back and up a hill, is a private cemetery, where Walt Whitman is said to have visited in July of 1881 and composed a lament on the graves of his ancestors.
Inside the historic house, little has changed on the main floor. The wide old pine-floorboards are original and the mantles on the four fireplaces range from plain (in the summer kitchen) to elaborate (in the living room). Each door on the main floor is different in design.
