Eloy LeCompte House. 231 North Main Street.
Property type: I-house. This two-story, three-bay, stone Anglo-American
I-house has a single-story wood-framed rear ell. Its first floor is raised above
street level and is reached by steps hidden behind a stone wall. The main entry
is centered on the east facade and is sheltered by a modern shed hood.
Fenestration consists of regularly spaced, six-over-six and four-over-four,
double hung sash windows. The gable ends of the house are crowned by stepped
parapets with central chimney stack, and the roof is sheathed in cement-asbestos
shingles. A gabled, wood-framed, single-story ell adjoins the rear wall of the
main block. ~
