Description & Additional Information


Frame cottage, 1 ½ stories, with complex footprint and roofline reflecting multiple construction phases. Front of house has a partial-width, two-story front-gabled front porch with chamfered square posts, oversized flat-sawn brackets, and flat-sawn wood rail at second story only; no first-floor porch rail. Shed roof covers one-bay porch extension at left. Porch shelters one paneled door and one two-over-two wood window at first floor, single door at second floor. Flat-sawn drop detail at gable peak. A 1 ½-story side-gabled addition extends to the right (south), flush with front of house, with a single two-over-two wood window at center front; this was added in the 2000s. Another 1 ½-story cross-gable wing, recessed, one-bay deep, extends to the north, with one two-over-two wood window at first and second stories. At rear, a long one-story hyphen with one two-over-two wood window on north side and a porch on the south side connects to a two-story garage addition with a single garage opening and one pedestrian door at first floor, Chicago-style window at second-floor. The hyphen and garage addition dates to 1985 and while substantial, is clearly distinguished from and secondary to the original house.
