Description and history

edit

The 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in 1856, and is a well-preserved local example of high-style Italianate design. It has a low-pitch gable roof, with dentil moulding in the gable eave, and a round-arch window near the apex of the gable. The roof cornice has paired brackets, and the front porch, which extends across the three-bay front of the main block, is supported by square posts with brackets.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 17, 1985.[1]
