ROUND TOWER IN CNR W/ CURVED GLASS WINDOWSCURVED SPINDLED PORCH W/ ROOF CRESTINGAROUND TOWER [Date Cnst:CA] 2025: This two-story Queen Anne house was constructed c.1898. It is irregular in plan with a stone block foundation, vinyl siding, and an asphalt-shingled gable roof. The building consists of intersecting gable-roofed masses. The front elevation faces north and is asymmetrical in composition with a rounded tower at the ell between front- and side-gabled masses; the tower is capped by a conical roof. A semi-circular, one-story, mansard-roofed entry porch is located at the base of the tower. The porch features turned wood supports and railings, a decorative spandrel panel, and decorative brackets. A decorative metal cresting is located along the upper edge of the porch roof. Inside the porch, entry doors are located in the side walls of both building masses with a curved cottage window in the tower base between them. Above this, the tower contains another curved cottage window. Both gable-roofed building masses feature cutaway corners, cottage windows, one-over-one windows, and decoratively patterned wood shingles under the gables. Cottage windows feature leaded glass upper sashes.
