From the NRHP: "465-467 Oak St. Present Condition; This Victorian building is two stories with a garage and full basement. Its structure is of redwood balloon frame, redwood V-rustic siding and gable roof hidden from front view by a false front facade. This front facade, facing the street, features arched pediments and arched windows with nicely moulded outside window casings and door casings. The facade also has quoins, corner beads, and elaborate wooden trim mouldings below the entryway cornice and roof cornice. The roof cornice appears as a multi-level moulded horizontal "Cap" and is echoed by lesser horizontal lines over the window, front doorway, garage and service entrance. Overall, the building has a strong vertical emphasis, well suited to construction in a densely built city and it is nestled in a row of six other Victorians of about the same era, some of which are also listed in various Victorian architectural publications. The facade and interior have been restored during the renovation.period, 6-1-77 to 7-27-81, by the replacement of mouldings, preparation of surfaces and application of paint. The restoration has been certified as meeting the Secretary of the Interior's Standards for Rehabilitation." (
