This classic Colonial Revival house was built in 1936 for Dr. Henry Odland and his wife Alice. Odland was a physician with offices in the Medical-Dental Building. The Odlands remained here until about 1951, when the house was occupied by Richard D. Hoyt of the Henry Broderick real estate firm. Later owners include James Tupper, another physician, and his wife Margaret (1950s-60s), Joseph Jefferson, Jr., the owner of a plaster contracting company and his wife Fern (1960s), Carolee Gunderson (1970s) and Greg and Allison Mollner (1990).
The first floor windows on the main façade were enlarged at an unknown date, with two three-part windows replacing two pairs of six-over-nine windows.
