Abstract
The Ernest Shelton Van Tassel Residence, also known as Nutridge, is a shingled, one-story structure built in 1925. The residence is a local adaptation of the Colonial Revival style with a gabled roof, exterior shingles, and double-pitched hip-roofed wings that extend from either side of an outset living-room bay. The nomination includes the entire twenty-two acre plantation, including macadamia nut trees and a caretakers’s cottage. The Ernest Shelton Van Tassel Residence is significant for its association with the beginning of the macadamia nut industry in Hawaii. The main house is also significant as an example of the work of architect Hart Wood.
