Built in 1734, and renovated in 1945, the Allen House served as the residence of Historic Deerfield’s founders, Henry and Helen Flynt. They purchased numerous houses along The Street between 1942 and 1962. The interiors of this house have been left as they were when the Flynts lived here with their outstanding collections of American antiques.
Tours of this house can be arranged during the regular season on the day of your visit at the Hall Tavern Visitor Center.
