Black Point
| North front of Black Point, showing the stick style detailing in the gable end. There is a small porch on the third floor with steep stairs leading to the second story porch. Broad steps lead from the lawn to the double doors on the first floor. The first floor siding is a dark color with light trim, but the siding and trim on the remainder of the house appears to be the same light color. The house's tower, on the right, is obscured by foliage. |
