Additional Information:2020
This Ranch house was constructed circa 1960. The one-story building is constructed in an L-shape with a low, hipped roof and wide overhanging eaves. The primary façade faces south onto the frontage road north of W. Rawson Avenue. The house is clad in a combination of board and batten siding and random-coursed limestone veneer. Secondary facades feature vinyl or aluminum siding. Prominent features include large plate glass windows wrapping around the southeast corner of the house, and an entryway that is sheltered under the slope of the roof, with a large bay window adjacent. The house also contains an attached, two-car garage.
