Significance

Based on field work conducted in September 2014, this historic property retains its relationship to the streetscape, historic building form and a sufficient amount of exterior historic building fabric (design features, cladding and/or window sash/openings) to contribute to the distinct character of the Georgetown neighborhood.

This is an altered but relatively intact historic property that may possess some limited architectural and/or historic significance. Due to its construction date (age), design character and/or condition no historical research has been undertaken regarding this property. This property exhibits no substantive changes to the exterior appearance since it was identified in the 1997 HRI project. Modern vinyl sash members have been installed.

 
Appearance
Residential vernacular house with a rectangular plan, drop siding, gable roof, and composition roofing. Building is in an extremely deteriorated condition. Tall narrow, double-hung windows with tails (windows covered). Central entry hood. Minimal traditional gable form. Cottage window. Corner boards and facia trim. Overgrown lot. Plan matches that of Field Site No. 84 (6253 Ellis Ave S).
