A cobblestone on Ontario Center Rd is unique in that it's quoins, sills and lintel arches are made of red sandstone instead of the usual limestone. (Medina sandstone?)

The street facing facade is distinctly different from the ends, with four rows of red sandstone cobbles per quoin, while the south end has three rows (diagonally laid, but not herringboned) of a mixture of different colored stones, and the north face is made up of more uniformly round stones (also three rows per quoin).

The fenestration is symmetric across this five bay plan, and may now consist of modern replacements. The appear to be two over two lights behind the modern storm windows. The enclosed porch is also a more modern feature, though the gray stone corner pieces may be part of an original design.

The fan lights at the gable are a fairly common sight among cobblestone homes.
