NOTES
Additional Information:2017
This two-story, rectangular-plan house was constructed c.1890 and displays modest Queen Anne influences in its asymmetrical façade and contrasting wall materials. It is clad in clapboard siding and rests on a fieldstone foundation. The hip roof is covered with standing-seam metal roofing, and features a chimney on the ridge line. Cross gables on the north and south (side) elevations feature closed gable ends with decorative shingles and small louvered windows in the peaks. A wraparound porch spans the east (front) and north (side) elevations and has a hip roof supported by wood Tuscan columns on paneled plinths, resting on a poured concrete foundation. An octagonal turret rises above the northeast corner of the front façade. A two-story polygonal bay projects on the north (side) elevation and a one-story shed roof porch is located on the rear (west) elevation. Windows are generally one-over-one, double-hung and four-light fixed sash and several window openings appear to have been removed. A one-story, two-stall garage is located to the south of the house. A modern concrete-block retaining wall surrounds the lawn on the north and east sides, and concrete steps provide access from the sidewalk below.
