Chandler-Bigsby-Abbott Homestead
Built c. 1673
88 Lowell Street, Andover, MA

One of the ancient homesteads of the Chandlers is located at 88 Lowell Street in the West Parish. The house was built before 1673 by Captain Thomas Chandler. His daughter Hannah and her husband Captain Daniel Bigsby continued to occupy the house after the death of Hannah's parents. The farm consisted of over sixty acres on the south side of Lowell St. and extended east to the Shawsheen River. Several additions have been added to the original structure including a lean-to addition to the northeast rear and an ell on the northwest side.

It is believed to be the oldest First Period home still standing in Andover today. The interior rooms on the south facing side on both levels contain huge hand hewn summer beams with chamfered edges and gun-stock post corner beams. Many of the interior wall sheathing are covered with horizontal tongue and grooved or ship-lap wide pine board paneling. The kitchen fireplace is nearly 7' wide x 5' high and 42" deep. The original chimney was removed at some point in the early twentieth century and rebuilt in the early 1960s. The floors are all wide pine boards measuring 12" to 22" in width throughout the house.

There are two separate cellars, one below the kitchen on the east end of the building and accessible only by a south bulkhead door. The second cellar runs under the west end of the house and continues northward under the ell addition. This foundation however takes an unusual turn, leaving a small portion of the northwest corner not excavated. Three stairways once descended into this basement. One next to the kitchen fireplace, one by bulk head on the south front west side and the third under the back NE stairs. There is no basement under the center portion of the main house where the center chimney was built nor under the lean-to addition.

Six rooms are on the first floor and two entry porches and five rooms on the second floor. The main staircase is enclosed in vertical paneling. A second stair way built on the northeast corner of the ell is also enclosed, but in plaster walls. There is evidence of an older staircase in the middle room of the ell on the first floor which may have been removed when the last addition was built. Most floor and roofing timbers in the entire house have been hand hewed. The roof construction is framed with post and beam rafters with horizontal purlins. The wood sheathing runs vertical from eve to ridge pole. Evidence of a small fire on the north wall of the kitchen can be seen on the wall studs. There are a variety of window sizes and styles from different periods but the majority of the window openings measure only 24 inches wide. An 1888 map shows two barns on the property and the site still has the foundation of one on the East end of the house. The existing garage built in 1961 and has a full basement below was razed in 2008 and is now the site of the new home on the divided lot.

The following is a chronology of the residents and owners of the property for the last three hundred years.
