Additional Comments
This 1 1/2 story Queen Anne house was constructed in 1889. It is irregular in plan with vinyl and wood shingle siding and
an asphalt-shingled irregular roof. The front elevation faces northwest and is asymmetrical in plan with a recessed entry
porch spanning the southern half of the facade and a three-sided bay comprising the northern half. The porch has turned
wood supports and railings and decorative spindlework bargeboards; a projecting gable is located above the front door.
In addition to the door, the front porch also shelters a single-pane window. The bay adjacent to the porch contains 1-over-
1 windows on the sides and a modern 4-pane piqture window in the center. Square leaded glass windows are located
below the gables where the walls are clad in simple wood shingles.

Map code is 070913105263

Resurveyed August 2012; subsequent changes include the addition of vinyl siding and the replacement of several windows.
