Appraisal
This house retains much of its early twentieth-century character. The steeply-pitched gabled-bay with canted bay window is typical of this era and adds interest to the plan, façade, and roofline. The margin light sash windows, mock Tudor detailing, and porch canopy enliven its appearance.
