Constructed in 1928, this is an intact example of the Tudor Revival style, and contributes to the Montlake Historic District. This is one of the 27 brick homes erected in Montlake, between Boyer Avenue and 18th Avenue East, and McGraw and Lynn Streets. R. T. Brackett and M. M. Kelliher were the builders, under supervision of Robert R. Heinmingsen. Albert H. Geiser was the architect, and D.D. Kirk of the Varsity Decorating Company served as consulting decorator. All homes were erected between 1928 and 1930, and all were of unique design in the Tudor-revival style. The earliest known owners of this house were Charles B. & Beatrice Haynes in 1938; he worked at the Automobile Warehouse. The home was owned by Hazel S. Stewart in 1948; she remained here through at least 1958.
