HOUSE
c. 1930
This two-story, side-gabled, Colonial Revival-style house is three bays wide and double-pile with wood shingles, vinyl windows, flush eaves, an exterior brick chimney in the left (west) gable and an interior brick chimney near the right (east) gable. A one-story, front-gabled, projecting entrance bay on the façade has a pedimented gable and a six-panel door with four-light transom. A one-story, shed-roofed porch on the left elevation is supported by replacement columns and accessed by fifteen-light French doors on each side of the chimney. The house appears on the 1932 Sanborn map.

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

GARAGE
c. 1930, 1980s
Likely built concurrent with the house, but converted to an apartment, this front-gabled, frame garage has asbestos siding, vinyl windows, an interior stuccoed chimney, and a fanlight in the front gable. Two vehicular bays on the south elevation have been enclosed with sliding glass doors and covered with louvers. An entrance on the east elevation is sheltered by a hipped roof on square posts. In the 2015 survey, this was deemed a Noncontributing Building.
