Description and history

edit

The 2+12-story, wood-framed house was built in about 1887, and is a fine local example of Queen Anne styling. The house has asymmetrical massing, with large gable-roof sections projecting from an otherwise hipped roof. The porch has fine decorative balustrades and valances, as well as delicate turned posts. The gable ends were at one time decorated with almost Tudoresque applied Stick style woodwork, but these have apparently been sided over or removed.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 1984.[1]
