| Additional Information: | Decked south bay window with cresting; mansard roofed rear porch with small open spindle porch; projecting wooden triangular pediment shaped window and door heads topped by carved ornament; cut out carved and turned gable ornament in gable ends; leaded glass. The house was built by William Kelley. Jarvis Harrison, a grocer, lived here between c. 1895 and c. 1907. Initial research indicates that none of the occupants of this house are historically significant either individually, or as a group within the proposed historic district. This building does not meet the criteria of the NRHP for architectural significance. However, this building has sufficient architectural character to contribute to the proposed historic district. |
