LUCY EVANS HOUSE
c. 1940
This two-story, side-gabled, Colonial Revival-style house is three bays wide and double-pile with plain weatherboards and eight-over-eight wood-sash windows. Centered on the façade is a six-panel door with pediment supported by pilasters. There is an exterior brick chimney in the left (east) gable and a nine-light-over-two-panel door on the right (west) elevation is sheltered by a one-bay-wide, shed-roofed, screened porch on square posts. A full-width, hip-roofed wing at the rear features an enclosed space at the left rear (southeast) and a screened porch at the right rear (southwest), that wraps around the corner of the house and is accessed by paired French doors on the rear elevation. County tax records date the house to 1940 and the house appears on the 1949 Sanborn map.

In the 2015 survey, this was deemed a Contributing Building.
