The Copeland House is important as an example of a vernacular farm residence built in the late 18th century.[2][3] Further, it is significant for its association with the Copeland Family, which occupied the house and farmed the property for over 150 years. In the mid-1980s the Copeland family descendants sold the property. It was listed in the National Register of Historic Places on October 18, 1991.[1]
