NOTES
Additional Information:2013- "This c.1890, two story, wood-frame, side-gable farmhouse is characterized by a full-span, hip-roof, front porch with Queen Anne details, such as carved spindles and brackets. It rests on a stone foundation and is clad with clapboard siding. The fenestration on the front (north) facade consists of one-over-one, double-hung sash on the first floor and fixed square windows above the porch. A one-story addition spans the entire rear of the structure. The addition is in character with the historic fabric of the house and includes an enclosed porch along the west elevation. The property was obscured on three elevations by surrounding foliage, making it difficult to photograph.

The property also includes a c.1910 gambrel-roof barn (225422) and a c.1910 storage shed (225423). The barn rests on a poured concrete foundation and is clad in vertical wood planks. Two dormers project from each side of the ridgeline. The storage shed has a metal-clad, side-gable roof and rests on a concrete block foundation. The upper portion of the elevations are clad in clapboard and feature two-over-two, double-hung sash windows."
