The Stephen Tyng Mather Home in Darien, Connecticut, is a historic house and National Historic Landmark that holds significant importance as the longtime family residence of Stephen Tyng Mather, an industrialist and conservationist who played a key role in the establishment of the National Park Service in 1916.
Built in 1778 by Deacon Joseph Moses Mather, the house underwent various alterations by Mather himself, including the addition of a porch, a two-story rear extension, and a portico over the main entrance, while still retaining its original Colonial Revival charm.
