Additional Comments
This is a two-and-one-half story Georgian Revival house constructed of brick. It has a steeply-pitched gable roof with dormers that are decorated with round-arched openings and pilasters. The fenestration is regular and the first floor windows on the front wall are set under arched reveals. A pedimented overhang covers the main entrance that is decorated with sidelights. This house is a good example of a simple variation of the Georgian Revival style.

This was the home of David Meiklejohn, a doctor, between 1928 and 1942.
