Replace c. 1970's aluminum window with wood window, sized to fit either the original opening or the current size; replace insulated aluminum door with wood French door. Both features are on a side elevation, not visible from Scott Avenue.
One and one half story frame with aluminum siding. Hip roof with lower cross gables and gabled attic dormer, asphalt shingle covering. Double hung one over one windows. One story one bay front porch with aluminum columns and balustrade. Interior offset brick chimney. Brick foundation. Irregular plan. Sidelights at front entry. Projecting bay on front façade.
The owners of 116 E. Scott are rehabilitating the house themselves as time and budget permit. Their eventual objective is to remove the artificial siding and restore the exterior. The window and door that are the subject of this Certificate were installed in a previous remodeling prior to H-1 status for Old North Knoxville and are inappropriate in size and design for the house.
