| Additional Information: | This house is a good example of the bungalow style. It is 1-1/2 stories high with a flared gable roof which extends over the recessed front porch. Its features include a shed dormer with projecting beam ends, a side bay with a similar roof, window hoods, shingled siding, and a chimney reminiscent of Japanese design. The house was built by F.S. and Evelyn Van de Gent. An interesting note about this property is that it was purchased before the house was constructed by Octaview J.B. Brice, consul for the Kingdom of the Belgians in the 1880s for Wisconsin, Minnesota, and the Dakotas. He was in the real estate and insurance business as well as an agent for the Ocean Steamship Company. |
