Additional Information: | This one and one-half story Queen Anne styled house features a clapboard exterior and an asphalt shingled gable roof. The high pitched roof accomodates a large hip roofed dormer which displays three windows - one on each fully exposed facet. Directly beneath this dormer on the first story is a multi-sided entrance bay. The enclosed, full-lenght front porch has a sweeping hip roof, whose five corners follow the facets of both the dormer and the entrance bay. At each of the porch corners are Tuscan columns which lend support to the heavy porch frieze. A balustrade and a decorative wooden base are other porch elements. The residence is intact and in excellent condition. |
