NOTES
Additional Information:2013 This two-story Tudor Revival house was built c.1920. The front facade has a patterned stone veneer and a steeply pitched side gable roof covered in patterned slate shingles. The main (west) facade has a gable wall dormer with casement windows and a steeply pitched projecting gable that houses the main entrance. Centered in the projecting gable is an arched window of leaded glass. A small shed dormer is located south of the main entrance. The main entrance dominates the facade with a stone archway that surrounds the arched batten door with a small glazed window. The facade features arched leaded glass windows. Between each and carved into the stone are curving pilasters and decorative stone arches lintels. A large multi-shaft chimney clad in the same stone veneer located on the north elevation. Remaining windows are predominantly rectangular with leaded glass. What appears to be an original stone wall, with the same pattern as the stone on the facade, surrounds the house. Steeply pitched rooflines and stone construction distinguish this large 2 1/2 story house.
