NOTES
Additional Information:2007-
This side gable house is one-and-one-half stories with a rectangular plan. The walls are multi-colored brick laid in a running bond, and the roof is sheathed in asphalt shingles. A gable entrance vestibule is centrally located on the facade, with rusticated stone quoining around the entrance. Windows are one-over-one, double hung sash on stone sills with brick lintels and stone keystones. A large plate glass window is located on the facade. An awning is attached to the facade over the front entryway. The house now functions as Peko Electronics, a commercial business.

A frame, front gable, 2-bay garage with asphalt shingles is located at the rear of the property.
