104-5144-0043 Single Dwelling, Stories 2.00, Style: Late 19th and Early 20th C. American Movement, 1930 This two-story, two-bay, hipped-roof American Foursquare is finished in stucco and has a hipped-roof porch that stretches across the entire facade. Clerk J. Briscoe Mundy built the house in 1930 on speculation, promptly selling it the same year to Charles Carroll. Carroll and his family are buried in Maplewood Cemetery. Approached via a single concrete step, the porch is supported by three slender Tuscan columns. The door is located in the south bay of the west-facing facade, while the other bay of the 1st floor has a pair of windows. The 2nd story bays have one window each; all windows are three/one-sash. Brick chimneys emerge from either side of the roof and a hipped roof dormer with a three-light casement window peeks out of the center of the metal roof. A one-story, stucco-finished addition is attached to the rear of the house and is flush with the south elevation. Individual Resource Status: Single Dwelling Contributing Total: 1
