Caleb Whittaker Place The Caleb Whittaker Place is a historic house on Perkins Pond Road in Weare, New Hampshire. Built in 1765, this single-story wood frame structure is remarkable for the excellent state of preservation of its interior. It is estimated to have been built c. 1765 by Caleb Whittaker, one of Weare's first settlers. The oldest portion of the house is a simple Cape-style structure with an unfinished attic space, with what is now the central chimney offset on its west side. On the far side of the chimney a similar section was built, probably not long after the first section, but its interior was apparently never finished off until 1977, when care was taken to preserve the original hand-hewn timbers. The exterior of the house was resided in 1902, at which time dormers and a porch were added. Because the house was tied up in estate litigation for many years in the 20th century, a number of features have survived inside that are often lost due to modernization, including leather-pinned door hinges and deeply worn wide floor boards.
