| Additional Information: | The Burnside Cottage is a one-story, L-plan, cross-gabled, frame Ranch house that faces west toward Medicine Lake. It has a concrete and concrete-block foundation, the walls are clad in clapboard, and the low-pitched roof has broad, overhanging boxed eaves. The closed cross gable on the west elevation shelters an entrance and a bay window. A large brick chimney extends above the ridgeline of the roof just behind the gable. The east ell is partially built into the hillside, and the raised concrete foundation at this location has a fieldstone veneer. The north end of the main block features an inset screened porch. Window openings contain double hung, fixed, and casement sash with false muntins. A terrace on the west is surrounded by a low stone wall. |
