NOTES
Additional Information:This one and one-half story house has a sloping gambrel roof, hip roof dormers, a shingled upper story, and a lower story covered with vinyl siding. The porch features round columns, a shingled balustrade, and a decorative apron.

This house is a good example of a variation of the Dutch Colonial Revival style.

This was the home of John and Edith Burnton between 1924 and 1942. John Burnton was a banker.

Initial research indicates that the occpuants of this house are not historically significant.
