Additional Comments
A LARGE TWO STORY ITALIANATE STYLE RESIDENCE IDENTIFIED BY WINDOW MOLDINGS WITH A "KEYSTONE-LIKE" ELEMENT AND BY A DETAILED VERANDA. THE STRUCTURE HAS A RECTANGULAR PLAN CONFIGURATION AND A HIPPED ROOF WITH DECK. THIS BUILDING HAS RECENTLY BEEN RESTORED AND IT IS NOW IN EXCELLENT CONDITION. THE CIRCULAR END TO THE VERANDA IS A MODERN ADDITION, HOWEVER.

THE DATE OF CONSTRUCTION IS BETWEEN 1875 AND 1895 AND IT IS SHOWN AS BELONGING TO THE JOHN MANKEL ESTATE ON THE 1895 LANCASTER MAP.
