NOTES
Additional Information:This 2 1/2 story Queen Anne house was constructed in 1887. It is rectangular in plan with vinyl siding and an asphalt-shingled gable roof. The front elevation faces southwest and is asymmetrical in plan with a three-sided, two-story bay window at the northern end of the facade and a two-story entry porch at the southern end. Windows are 1-over-1 double-hung. A projecting gable covers the bay windows; decorative shingles surround a small 1-over-1 window under the gable.

Resurveyed July 2012; subsequent changes include the replacement of the original wall material with vinyl siding throughout and the replacement of original windows with new 1-over-1 windows.
