| Additional Information: | This one and a half story Bungalow house features a rectangular shaped plan configuration, a concrete block foudation, an aluminum/vinyl sided exterior, a wood trim, and an asphalt shingled hip roof. Intersecting with the roof in the attic story are gabled dormers. Various Bungalow style elements of the dwelling include exposed rafter ends and a sun porch. The residence, which is in good condition, was owned by Rupert E. Moe in 1982. The Frank Roach house was built in c. 1920. (See Bib. Ref. A). It is architecturally significant in that it represents a type, period, or method of construction. For a historical statement, see the District Survey Form. |
