July 2009: One-and-a-half stories in height with a full English basement, this brick Gothic Revival-style duplex features a rectangular-shaped footprint. This dwelling is constructed in a eight-course American bond. A one-story porch supported by turned posts covers the full-width of the façade and extends past the side elevations by almost a full bay on each side. These side portions have metal balustrades. The porch has scalloped knee braces and turned posts. The first story is four bays wide, with each side of the house containing a wood door topped by a jack arch in the outside bay flanked by a single 6/6 window with square-edged wood sills in the inside bays. The house is capped with a side-gable, slate-shingle roof with two steep cross gables on the façade. A shed-roofed, one-story, brick wing stretches across the full-width of the rear elevation on a random rubble foundation. A shed-roofed, two-story, one-bay sunroom addition has been added to the east elevation and is visible from the street.
