| Additional Information: | 1999- "This three-story frame building was built c. 1900 and was the first building on the north side of the street to survive the fire of 1910. In 1915 the building was owned by Dr. Albers and was used as both his residence and as his office. The building has drop lap siding with fishscale shingles in the gable areas. The foundation is rubble stone and the roof is asphalt shingle. The steep roofline is the building's most distinctive feature, characteristic of the Queen Anne style. The roof system is cross-gabled, with the front portion having a gambrel roof and a front hip, while the side portion is a gabled roof. The front door is modern, and the front porch is concrete with modern wrought iron rails. There is a new garage on the property. The front facade has a clipped front gable and a hipped roof extension to the first floor, forming the roof of the entryway. The entryway' shipped roof extension is supported by two square posts. Concrete steps and landing with wrought iron railing lead to the front door. The molding above the door is original to the structure. This facade's fenestration includes a first-floor bay window consisting of three one-over-one double-hung windows. The hipped roof and molding above the bay window are original to the house. The second floor includes two one-over-one double-hung windows located directly above the bay window. A small, square fixed window in the front gable end is bracketed by two vertical transoms. The east facade has a second entryway with a hipped roof that extends from the southeast corner of the house to the bay window extension. This porch was once used as a patient entrance, but is currently inaccessible and has been blocked by a modern, 4-foot brick wall that surrounds the landing. Originally, this entryway had square porch supports and steps leading to STH 33. The first- floor bay window contains three one-over-one double-hung windows and has a small hipped roof along the second floor line. The hipped roof and the molding above the bay window are original to the home. A one-over-one double-hung window is located on the second floor directly above the bay window. A small, square one-over-one doublehung window is within the gable on the third floor." -"Allenton 7.5, Washington Co.", WisDOT#1412-02-00, Prepared by Mead & Hunt, Inc., (1999). |
