2012- "The George T. Eichberg House, built in 1901, is a two-and-one-half-story Queen Anne residence. Resting on rusticated concrete block foundation, the walls are clad in vinyl replacement siding and the hip roof is covered in asphalt shingles and features an interior stone chimney. A projecting gable dominates the front (south) facade and features decorative wood shingles and brackets at the canted corners and in the enclosed clipped gable end. Similar cross-gables are located on the east and west (side) elevations. The west cross gable has a gable roof with an enclosed, shingled gable end supported by decorative brackets. The main entrance is sheltered by an entry porch enclosed with screens with a low-pitched gable roof and enclosed, pedimented gable. Fenestration is regular, and most openings contain one-over-one, wood, double-hung sash with decorative leaded glass in the upper panes and plain wooden surrounds. An arched window is located on the second story, above the entrance."
