104-5144-0003 Business, Stories 2.00, Style: Bungalow/Craftsman, 1924 R. W. Wilbourn, Jr. and his wife, Eva, purchased this lot from Marshall Timberlake in 1920 as part of a larger plot of land. After subdividing the initial land conveyed, Wilbourn built this two-story, stucco-finished Craftsman Bungalow in 1924 on speculation, selling it that same year. The house has an exposed concrete foundation and a deep, front-gabled porch shading the 1st floor of the facade with brackets, a wooden balustrade, and battered concrete piers on brick plinths. The door is located on the western side of the two-bay, south-facing facade and is flanked by a set of three six/six-sash windows. A large, shed-roof dormer dominates the deep-eaved, side-gabled roof and also has three full-size six/six-sash windows and exposed rafter ends. The roof is covered in asphalt shingles and a chimney and large bay window are attached to the east elevation. The house is also approached by two sets of stairs due to the site's slope.
