HOUSE
1915-1925
NR nomination: One-story frame dwelling with hipped roof, oversized hipped dormer, interior chimney and engaged porch.

In the 1998 survey, this was deemed a Contributing Building.

2015 Survey Update: Among the most intact buildings on Patterson Place, this early bungalow is three bays wide and triple-pile with plain weatherboards, a replacement metal roof, and two interior brick chimneys. The house has two-over-two wood-sash windows, including three windows in a hip-roofed dormer centered on the façade. The full-width engaged porch is supported by tapered wood posts on brick piers, shelters a one-light-over-two-panel door, and is accessed by stone steps with stone knee walls. A seam in the siding at the left rear (southeast) indicates the former presence of an inset porch at that corner of the house. County tax records date the building to 1922.

GARAGE
1915-1925
One-story front-gabled frame garage with an open bay on the north elevation and plywood sheathing in the gable. In the 1998 survey, this was deemed a Contributing Building.
