The Farrington House is a historic house at 30 South Main Street in Concord, New Hampshire. Despite its outward appearance as a single family residence, this 2.5 story wood frame house was built as a duplex for brothers Samuel and Philip Farrington. Its single door serves both units, and the central hall has parallel staircases. The exterior is a conservative Greek Revival design, with side-gable roof flanked by paired chimneys on the sides. A gabled pavilion extending the full two stories shelters the recessed main entry, which has sidelight windows. The first level of the pavilion is styled in wood to appear as ashlar stone. The upper level has paneled pilasters supporting the pedimented gable. The property also includes a later Victorian brick carriage house.[2]
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.[1]
