002-1260-0037 Other DHR-ID: 104-0232 Primary Resource Information: Single Dwelling, Stories 2.00, Style: Other, 1886 July 2009: This two-story, three-bay, single-pile, weatherboarded house set on a low brick foundation is a somewhat elongated I-house. There is a two-story semi-octagonal addition with a side-gabled roof at the eastern end and a series of one-story additions at the southwest rear corner. The roof is covered with standing-seam metal and has projecting eaves and verges and shaped rafter ends behind corner fascia, with returns in the central cross gable only. There is an interior capped chimney on each side of the central hall. Windows are 6/6 double-hung with plain trim. The one-story, one-bay central entrance porch has a low-pitched hipped roof, chamfered square pillars with simple knee braces, and a simple balustrade of square spindles. The rear elevation is covered by a one-story back porch with a concrete floor and a nearly flat roof. The addition nearest the main house matches it in most details and was probably the kitchen or servants' quarters. The house was rehabilitated in 1989 and adapted for use as an adult care center. A complex of one-story wings at the southwest corner was replaced with the present wing with its gabled roof, 1/1 windows, and multiple entrances.
