A number of these designs appear in Oshkosh, and would be of little interest except for the porch. This is a frame building with hipped roof and hip roof dormers. The porch dominates the design, extending across the facade as a segmental arch. Visually, grouped columns support the arch. This is the best, intact example of this relatively chaste form of the Colonial Revival and would be an important element in a Colonial Revival thematic grouping. See Ch.11, Section 12.
1994- "Incorporating features from the Georgian Revival and American Foursquare styles, this is a massive, clapboard-sheathed, two story structure that rises from a coursed, stone block foundation. While the overall massing and scale resemble that of the Georgian Revival, the hip roof with wide eaves and hip roof dormers characterize the Foursquare. Particularly distinctive features include the bracketed, front eaves, decorative, scrolled, second floor panel flanked by one light windows and the full-width, hip roof front porch that includes a dramatic, elliptical arch and is supported by a cluster of three short, Tuscan columns atop a stone foundation at each corner. The house offers a unique combination of features and was built between 1898 and 1900 and owned by Oscar Crary"
