The tractor trailer was going eastbound when it went off the road and drove through an attached porch that connected to the two story home.
The owner, an 83-year-old man, was at home but was not hurt.
The tractor trailer driver, identified as 47-year-old Kevin Maur Bowden of Wilson, North Carolina, was evaluated but did not require medical treatment. He has been issued a summons for Reckless Driving.
The owner of the home is now staying with family members.
Suffolk building officials inspected the premises Tuesday and advised that it was structurally secure as the affected portion was the attached breezeway and not the home itself.
