HOUSE
2000
Recently constructed, this two-story, front-gabled house fits the general scale of the neighborhood. It is four bays wide and double-pile with plain weatherboards, two-over-one wood-sash windows, and an exterior brick chimney on the left (north) elevation. A one-light-over-two-panel door on the right (south) end of the façade is located in a projecting square bay and has one-light-over-one-panel sidelights and a one-light transom. A one-story, hip-roofed porch spans the façade and is supported by square columns. The porch roof wraps around the right elevation as an enclosed one-story space. The house has an arched window in the front gable, shed-roofed dormers on the right and left elevations, and a one-story, shed-roofed bay on the left elevation. A two-story gabled wing at the rear has a wall dormer on the left elevation, a basement-level garage, and a one-story shed-roofed section at the rear (east). A rubble-stone wall extends along the front of the property. County tax records date the building to 2000.

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