Cordis House (1832)

Cordis House

The Cordis House in Longmeadow is a late Federal-style house with Greek Revival elements, built at 715 Longmeadow Street in 1832. It was originally constructed as a parsonage, occupied first by Rev. Jonathan B. Condit, who is described in Proceedings at the Centennial Celebration of the Incorporation of the Town of Longmeadow (1883), as “youthful, singularly winning, ornate, magnetic—for personal attractions most admired of all the occupants of our pastorate, before or since.” The house was then occupied by Condit’s successor, Rev. Hubbard Beebe. In 1845, the house was bought by Thomas Cordis, a Boston merchant, and has ever since been occupied by the Cordis family. The brick house’s elaborate porch ironwork was added in the late nineteenth century.
