2019 - appearance unchanged

This two-and-one-half-story brick Queen Anne-style house was constructed in c.1900. It is located at the intersection of Knights Avenue and Fond Du Lac Avenue, just north of the village’s historic commercial center. The house has a hipped roof with lower cross gables and an asymmetrical façade. The front entrance is located on the north side of the façade opposite a pair of modern casement windows. Across the full width of the façade is a hipped roof porch supported by turned wood posts with decorative brackets. On the second story of the façade are two one-over-one vinyl windows in slightly downsized openings. Windows on the side elevations are also replacements. On the south elevation is a projecting gable bay with cutaway corners. At the rear of the house is a one-story addition.
