DESCRIPTION: This one story east end house represents one of the best preserved and one of the most unusual examples of its type. The modest one and one half story house features a front end gable with a small narrow window in the attic, beneath which is a larger window that retains its cut clean glass. To the northeast, a flat roof veranda with Tuscon columns is intact and leads to the corner entry placed where the gabled wall dormer extends with a small attic window above and below a pair of narrow rectangular windows with simple moldings. House is on a cross-axial plan and features a wall dormer on the southwest side.
SIGNIFICANCE: This house is architecturally significant as a locally rare example of modest residential architecture that was common to Bay City as this part of Ashland was once called. Few survive today in as good a state of preservation and few have the additional features found on this example.
