Site Info

Queen Anne (c.1900)

One and one-half story frame with weatherboard wall covering on first floor and wood shingles on second floor. Bellcast hip roof with bellcast roof dormer, side gable dormers, shed roof on rear and turret, with simple sawn brackets and asphalt shingle roof covering. One over one double hung windows. One story tw-thirds porch with front gable roof with elliptical window, chamfered wood columns with simple capitals and scroll brackets, turned spindle balustrade and bead board ceiling. Two interior offset brick chimneys. Brick foundation. Irregular plan. Sidelights and transoms with lead caming featuring diamond pattern. Possibly designed by George F. Barber.


Vinyl windows have been installed and old windows (some of which were not original) removed by window installer. Although it will be necessary to install new windows, and the condition of the old windows probably made that necessary before they were removed, any replacement windows should also be wood.
