NOTES
Additional Information:This two-story vernacular house was constructed c. 1880. It is irregular in plan with clapboard walls and an asphalt-shingled
gable roof. The front elevation faces north and is asymmetrical in plan. An attached three-bay garage, clad in vinyl, is a
later addition. Some windows are original two-over-one double-hung while others appear to be metal framed one-overone
windows. All have decorative wood shutters attached. A wood door with six lights is located in the north elevation.

The house is in fair condition, but retains only a moderate degree of integrity do to
replacement windows and the modern garage addition. According to historic aerial images, the house was once part of a
larger farm complex within a rural environment that has since been altered by suburban development. In addition, as a
vernacular building, the house does not possess a high degree of individual architectural interest or distinction.
