NOTES
Additional Information:Clapboard, Late Picturesque house has complex, massing.

2018- Resurveyed, appearance unchanged.

This two-story Queen Anne residence appears to date from the late nineteenth century. It is asymmetrical in massing with a hipped roof with intersecting gables at varying heights. The house is clad in wide-gauge aluminum replacement siding and sits on a rock-faced ashlar stone foundation. The south facade features a recessed entry porch with turned wood posts and railings and a center gable. Above the porch is a steeply sloped roof with a shed dormer with three one-over-one wood sash windows. At the peak of the roof is a gable-on-hip with a triangular attic light. To the right (east) of the shed dormer is a two-story rectangular tower with a steeply pitched hipped roof. Ornate corner brackets support the overhanging eaves. Adjacent to this projection is an angled two-and-one-half-story square tower with a steeply pitched pyramidal roof. A brick chimney is centrally located where the gables intersect. The east elevation is dominated by a two-and-one-half-story projecting gable bay with canted corners. Many windows on the house appear to be one-over-one vinyl replacement sashes, and most window openings on the first story have added metal awnings.
