Mahlon Schooley House

August 1, 2023 by Robert Goforth

15555 Second Street

Open on Friday: 10am to 5pm (Garden Only)

Mahlon Schooley (b.1788), who later helped establish a Quaker community in Iowa, built this brick house in 1817. Like many Waterford dwellings, the original portion is a three-bay brick bank building on a stone foundation, with a metal gable roof. The rain gutters almost hide a mousetooth cornice. The house was enlarged at the rear in the 1840s, and late in that century an owner reconstructed the south wall of the house, adding windows and lengthening the first story windows.

The Mahlon Schooley House Garden is open through the courtesy of Susan Honig-Rogers & Richard Rogers
