| Additional Information: | Two-story, clapboard house with stickwork under the eaves and decorative poasts and brackets on the porch. 1994: This is a two-story, vernacular gabled ell with Italianate and Queen Anne ornamentation. The house has a one-and-one-half-story, frame wing with enclosed rear entry appended to the back. The house features Italianate window heads and Queen Anne bargeboards, cut-out porch posts with brackets, an open rail with cut-out balusters and lattice skirting. The original Italianate structure was likely built c. 1807s. The Queen Anne addition, the Queen Anne ornamentation to the original structure, and the existing fenestration (with the exception of the modern bay window) were likely added c. 1890s. An iron fence set in concrete partially encloses the farmhouse yard. Several agricultural outbuildings, which are arranged to form three sides of a farmyard, are located just north of the house. The large, gable-roofed, bank barn with a stone and concrete foundation and vertical board walls has two ornate cupolas. Each of the four sides of the cupolas is pedimented and features paired arched louvers framed by geometric designs. The dates 1895 and 1906 are posted on the cupolas. The other outbuildings include an equipment barn, a pig barn conjoined to a crib barn with an equipment shed with cupola appended, a woodshed and wellhouse. The original farmhouse was probably constructed by 1873 for C. Shuman whose descendants owned the farm as late as 1930. |
