Appraisal
The plain, but symmetrical, exterior of this fine farmhouse is enhanced by subtle features including the moulded stucco door surround and regular fenestration. Set within its own grounds, it creates a pleasant view from the road. The complex of stone outbuildings contributes to the setting.
