The Whittemore-Robbins House in Arlington stands as a Federal-era residence built in 1795, displaying the refined architectural sensibilities of the late eighteenth century before later Italianate elements were incorporated into its design. The dwelling represents an important example of domestic architecture from the early American republic, blending the restrained classical proportions characteristic of Federal style with the more ornamental features associated with the Italianate tradition.
