The Hastings-Morse House is a historic First Period house in Haverhill, Massachusetts. The oldest portion of the 2+12-story wood-frame house, its central chimney and right-side rooms, were probably built c. 1706 by a man named Hastings. Left-side rooms and a partial leanto section on the back of the house were added during the 18th century. The house underwent a major restoration in the late 1957, which included raising the roof on the leanto section. Another 20th-century addition is the sunroom on the left (west) side of the house. Evidence of the building's First Period origins is still visible in the right front room.[2]
