Additional Comments
This two-story Gabled Ell house was constructed in 1872 and 1885. It is rectangular in plan with asbestos siding and an asphalt-shingled gable roof. The front elevation faces southeast and is asymmetrical in plan with a full-width front porch that has squared wooden supports with brick tier bases. Wooden porch steps with brick side walls are located at the northern end of the facade. The flat roof of the porch serves as the base of a second-floor balcony with a metal railing. A picture window with 1-over-1 windows on each side is located at the first-story south of a pair of single doors.

Resurveyed July 2012; no changes visible.
