The Cunningham-Hembree Estate is a historic place in Windsor, Sonoma County. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 9, 2018. The estate includes two significant homes. The Cunningham House, built around 1850 by Robert Cunningham, is the oldest known structure in Windsor. Robert Cunningham was an early homesteader who helped establish the community. The Hembree House was constructed in 1931 by Dr. Atlas Hembree and Clara McClelland Hembree, Robert Cunningham's granddaughter. This home was also known as 'Mattapan.' Cypress trees were planted in 1872 to honor Clara Catherine McClelland's birth. This estate is historically important for its connection to Windsor's founding families and its early development.
