| Additional Information: | Clapboard, Late Picturesque house has stickwork in the gables and fish-scale shingles. This two-story cross gable house with Queen Anne details was constructed c.1890. It is of frame construction and clad in clapboard. The roof is clad in asphalt shingles and features overhanging eaves with modern soffits and an exterior brick chimney. Gable ends feature decorative spindlework, wood shake shingles, and corner boards. A band of decorative wood shingles separates the first and second stories around the house. The gable on the front (south) facade features cutaway corners supported by scrolled brackets. A gable entry porch supported by turned posts located at the southeast corner of the front facade shelters the front entryway and has a spindlework balustrade and decorative scrollwork. A shed roof bay window is located on the side (east) elevation. Windows are replacement one-over-one, double-hung sash, and a picture window with decorative leaded transom is centered on the front gable. A detached garage is located at the rear of the property. The house is a common example of a vernacular form that features decorative embellishments attributed to the Queen Anne style such as a dominant front-facing gable, decorative spindle work and shingles; however, it is a modest expression of the style. |
