Additional Information: | A 'site file' exists for this property. It contains additional information such as correspondence, newspaper clippings, or historical information. It is a public record and may be viewed in person at the Wisconsin Historical Society, State Historic Preservation Office. The Hulburt House is a relatively uncommon Wisconsin example of the Second Empire style, immediately recognizable by its mansard roof. This boxy, hipped mansard has two slopes, the lower of which forms a steeply-pitched bell curve. This type of roof permitted a full story of additional living space without appearing massive. Elaborate dormer windows with scalloped window surrounds and flat, bracketed roofs light the upper living space. At the entry, a trio of arches frames a semicircular transom and sidelights. The house’s owner, Chauncey Hulburt, was a lumberman; so perhaps not surprisingly the interior of his residence incorporates elegant woodwork, including a parqueted walnut-and-oak entry floor, an ornate mantel composed of marble and four species of wood, and black-walnut window surrounds. |
