The Sample Estate (also known as the McDougald House) is a historic house located at 3161 North Dixie Highway in Pompano Beach, Florida. The house is a noteworthy example of the Colonial Revival style and is one of the most architecturally distinguished homes in the community.[2]

Description and history[edit]

Completed in 1916, the large, two-story, seventeen-room house was designed by Albert Neal Sample in the Colonial Revival style of architecture. The main or east facade of the house is dominated by a one-story porch which extends to the south of the main block of the house to create an open porte-cochere. On March 1, 1984, it was added to the National Register of Historic Places.[2]

House moved[edit]

In 2001 the significant building on the estate, the Sample-McDougald House was moved to 450 Northeast 10th Street. The house was listed on the National Register of historic Places in its current location in 2004.[3] The property was then de-listed, the house was later renominated and added to the register as the Sample-McDougald House in 2004.[4]
