Description and history

[edit]

It was built in 1888, and consists of a square front block with rear addition. They are of frame construction with gable roofs. The front block is 2+12 stories, two bays by two bays. The rear addition was originally a two-story, two-bay-wide block with a one-story shed roofed wing. That shed roofed wing was expanded to two-stories in the 1940s. Also on the property is a contributing carriage house. It is an example of late-19th century, middle class vernacular architecture.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on August 24, 2011.[1]
