c. 1893 - Queen Anne/L-Plan (Contributing)
This dwelling is a one-story, Queen Anne dwelling. The left bay advances forming a wing with diagonal corners, overhanging eaves, scroll-sawn brackets, pendants, and elaborate verge board. The verge board is repeated on all three gables. A shed roof porch (now screened) supported by wood posts is located in the right front reentrant angle formed by the intersection of the front and side gable wings. The original front door remains. Most of the windows are 1/1 and 2/2 wood double-hung-sash with a few 2/2 aluminum double-hung-sash windows on the rear addition. The house sits on brick and concrete block piers, is clad in novelty siding, and has an intersecting gable roof sheathed in pressed metal.
