NOTES
Additional Information:This two-story, front-gable, vernacular residence was constructed in 1900. Built on a stone foundation covered with concrete, the walls are clad in clapboard. The steeply pitched gable roof has raked eaves and is covered in asphalt shingles. The west-facing main elevation features pointed, flattened-arch windows and matching transom over the main entrance, located in the leftmost bay. Most openings contain wood, two-over-two, double-hung sash. A small oval window is found on the second story of the north elevation. A side porch on the south elevation, at the junction of a shallow projecting gable, features square chamfered porch posts supporting flattened pointed arches with decorative cutouts and ornamental brackets. A rear addition extends on the east elevation, with a two-story porch. A cream brick chimney extends above the ridgeline of the roof at the junction of the main block and rear addition. The property also includes a c.1940 detached side gable garage, clad in drop siding with a moderately pitched asphalt roof.
