NOTES
Additional Information: In a picturesque interpretation, the stone Robert Rolhrich House exhibits the hip roof, front decorated wall chimney with terra cotta chimney pots, multiple wall treatment including stone and half-timbering nogged with brick, diamond-paned leaded glass windows suggestive of the Tudor English Cotswold cottage. A round entrance tower with round arched door placed in the angle of the house adds to the intended historic appearance. The Robert Rolhrich House is significant as one of two good representatives of the 1920s period house in the Elizabethan Tudor Revivial Style.
