| Appearance |
| This two story, pyramidal roofed box is a simple interpretation of the American Foursquare. It has narrow clapboard siding, one over one double hung wood sash windows and an uncharacteristic hipped roof bay projecting on the west side. The porch is an atypical steeply gabled stoop supported by turned posts. The house is set at an odd angle very closely to its 19th Century neighbor (to the west). It contributes to our knowledge of 19th Century South Park. |
