Detached dwelling. Colonial Revival. Ca. 1908-10. Frame with weatherboarding; 1½ stories; gable roof; 2 oversized front dormers with arched windows; symmetrical 5-bay front; 1-story front veranda with Ionic columns. French doors with fanlights; traceried and latticed glazing. Largely hidden from view by trees and shrubs, this architecturally intriguing house was probably the first dwelling built in University Place subdivision. It was occupied by Zeta Psi fraternity 1912-14 and Phi Kappa Psi fraternity 1914-27, but since has functioned as a private residence.
