The property was once part of the Hazen Estate at 111 Main Street which extended from Locke Street to Morton Street. John H. & Frances A. Flint purchased the property in 1887 and began to divide the former estate into house lots which spurred development on both Locke Street and southward along Main Street. Mrs. Christinanna Odlin purchased the lot in 1891and built this home in 1894 as a single family residence. Nov. 23, 1894 Andover Townsman - AT - The new house being erected by Mr. Odlin, corner of Main & Locke Streets, promises to be one of the handsomest residences in town. It was converted into a boarding house after the Odlin ownership and later divided into individual boarding apartments. It is known as the Andover Manse.
