| Additional Information: | This two and one-half story Queen Anne house has a steeply-pitched intersecting gable roof. The house is covered with asbestos shingles, but the broad front gable has clapboards. The veranda features a cut-out frieze and balustrade, thin, square posts and brackets. The main entrance consists of two wood-paneled doors with transoms. This house is a good example of a simple variation of the Queen Anne style. Initial research indicates that the occupants of this house are not historically significant. |
