M. H. STACY HOUSE
c. 1930
Located near the southwest corner of North and Glenburnie streets, this two-story, hip-roofed, Colonial Revival-style house faces a vacant lot to its east. The house is three bays wide and double-pile with mitered weatherboards, eight-over-eight wood-sash windows, and exterior brick chimneys on the left (south) and right (north) elevations. First-floor windows on the façade have molded wood lintels and paneled wood aprons. The entrance, centered on the façade, has a blind fanlight and is sheltered by a flat-roofed porch supported by decorative metal posts. There is a two-story, hip-roofed ell projecting from the rear (west) elevation with a hip-roofed, screened porch at the left rear (southwest) with a decorative wood railing at the roofline. A one-story, hip-roofed garage wing to the right (north) of the ell has a projecting hip-roofed bay and a six-panel door with three-light-over-one-panel sidelights on its rear elevation. There are two arched garage bays on the right elevation, facing North Street. The left bay retains paired nine-light-over-three-panel doors, while the right bay has been infilled with wood and a six-over-six window. Sanborn maps indicate that the house was constructed between 1925 and 1932.

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