Site Info

Bungalow (c.1940)

One and one-half story frame with weatherboard wall covering. Gable roof with hip dormer and asphalt shingle covering. Brick foundation. Double hung six over six windows, grouped in triple arrangement on front façade. One story full front porch. Front entrance with large sidelights. Square plan.


The addition of the portecochere with columns matching the existing porch will recapture architectural significance lost when it was moved. The intention of the new owners to utilize materials that match the existing, even though additions will be located to the rear, will also complement the existing house.
