7 Cobb Terrace

Text

HOUSE
c. 1925
Originally oriented to the east, the house was reoriented when Cobb Terrace was paved at the rear of the house. This one-story, side-gabled house is three bays wide and double-pile with wood shingles, replacement fixed one-light windows on the west elevation, replacement one-over-one wood-sash windows on the north and south elevations, and an interior brick chimney. Located on the right (south) end of the west elevation, the one-light-over-two-panel door is sheltered by a shed roof on brackets. A one-light-over-two-panel door on the left (north) elevation is sheltered by a gabled roof on brackets. A full-width, inset porch across the east elevation has been enclosed with screens. There is a shed-roofed dormer on the east elevation and the site slopes to the rear to reveal a basement level. The building appears on the 1925 Sanborn map.

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