Mackenzie house: This two-story, flank-gable, center-chimney dwelling, probably originally an early-nineteenth-century Federal style house, was extensively remodeled in 1913 ,when an open veranda extending around three sides and a projecting, centrally positioned two-story entry way pavilion, both Federal Revival in style, were added. Neil Mackenzie 1863-1931, a Nova Scotia born blacksmith, came to Cumberland in 1885, when the Diamond Hill Reservoir was being built, and in 1896 bought this house, along with the- former machine shop, from the Metcalfs.
