| Additional Information: | This Tudor Revival-style house was built around 1925, based on assessors' records. The house is one and one-half stories in heights and has a cross-gabled roof with overlapping front gables. The first story of the house is clad in stone veneer, and the upper gables are clad in stucco with decorative half timbering. The peak of each gable is clad in wide horizontal wood siding. The smaller gable above the front door and the upper part of the larger gable both project slightly and are supported on decoratively cut corbels. The house has a slate roof; the rain gutters have decorative metal endcaps. The windows appear to be original, with leaded six-light upper sashes over single pane lower sashes. The front door has a vertical plank appearance with a diamond-patterned window; above, a diminutive window has similar diamond leading. A modern garage with vinyl siding and double-wide overhead door is also located on the property. The house displays several character-defining elements typically associated with the Tudor Revival style, including the cross-gabled roof; the mixed exterior cladding materials; the projecting gables with corbels; and the tiny, diamond-patterned window above the front door. The house retains good integrity. |
