104-5144-0080 Single Dwelling, Stories 2.00, Style: Late 19th and Early 20th C. American Movement, 1896 Also built by A. N. Adams and O. T. Allegree, this two-story, hipped-roof, frame dwelling has a gabled wing that extends beyond the main mass on the south elevation, and a semi-hexagonal, projecting bay on the north side of the east-facing facade. A hipped-roof porch abuts the semi-hexagonal bay and wraps around the south elevation, terminating with a window where it meets the south elevation's wing. It is supported by slender Tuscan columns and is approached by a single step. The doorway is located in the facade's south bay, abutting the semi-hexagonal north bay with sidelights and a single-light transom. On both the 1st and 2nd floors of the semi-hexagonal bay, each of the three sides has a single window, while the south bay of the facade has a single window on the 2nd story. The east-facing elevation of the south wing also has a single window on the 2nd story. All of the windows are two/two-sash with louvered shutters. The facade's semi-hexagonal bay and the south elevation's wing both feature full pediments with small casement windows that continue the same siding pattern and cornice line as the rest of the house. The house has two brick chimneys that emerge out of the metal roof. Individual Resource Status: Single Dwelling Contributing Total: 1
