Description:
This one-and-a-half-story Tudor Revival style house has a steeply pitched intersecting gable roof. This dwelling has a i -shaped footprint that is four bays wide and three bays deep. Distinguishing the arched entrance at the second bay from the west end is a shorter steeply pitched cross gable. Stucco walls now enclose the original faux porte-cochere, which has peaked arch openings at the east bay and contains a secondary entrance. Defining the remaining bays of the primary facade are single and paired three-over-one light double-hung sash windows and a tripartite bay window. Character defining features include false half-timbering in each gable peak; brick cladding with rough-cut stone accents; the exposed rough-cut stone foundation; an exterior brick chimney adjacent to the entrance with rough-cut stone accents; the original wood entrance door, flared eaves; and sloping wing walls.
Environment:
This building is within a residential district characterized by early twentieth century residences. Sidewalks, a narrow easement strip, and sidewalks flank the paved street.
