| Additional Information: | Permit cited G. Walsh as the contractor. Sheathed with Lannon stone, this Period Tudor Revival-style house rises two stories and is dominated by a pair of projecting entrance gables, the smaller of which carries the home's wood-and-glass doorway set within a flattened Tudor arch. Small, copper lantern fixtures rest to either side of the door and a small diamond-paned window rests at the peak. The larger gable carries a bank of four multiple-light windows along the first floor and a small oriel window along the second level, while the peak features stucco and half-timbering. Windows throughout the remainder of the house are multiple-light examples and appear to be leaded. A large exterior chimney runs along the home's south elevation. A flat-roofed, one-story wing, which appears to be original to the home, extends from the rear. According to permit information, this house was originally built in 1937 by J. J. Maneage at an estimated cost of $6,800. Since the house was originally located in the Town of Greenfield, no directories were available for further ownership information between 1937 and 1954. The owner in 1954 was cited as Mrs. Lena Bieganski. No information was found to suggest eligibility under either Criterion A or B. Regarding Criterion C, this is a very good and intact example of a medium-sized, Period Tudor Revival-style home. The house features most of the primary characteristics associated with the style including steeply pitched entrance gables, stucco and half-timbering, multiple-light windows, as well as an oriel window, and a dominant chimney. Therefore the house is considered potentially eligible for the Register under Criterion C. |
