An additional, steeply pitched front gable at the <br />primary (east) fagade projects east from the primary cross -gable, towards North <br />Greenleaf Street. The exterior of the house is clad in smooth stucco with half-timbering <br />at the gable end of the two front gables. <br />The main entrance sits within a porch that is situated below a front gable, supported by <br />two wooden support posts. The main entrance door, facing south, is composed of a <br />wooden door with a rectangular panel detail and a wrought iron decorative grill and metal <br />hardware. Fenestration on the primary (east) facade includes a fixed wood window, <br />below the eastern -most front gable, with a 20-light muntin pattern. Wood casements with <br />an 8-light muntin pattern are on either side of the fixed window and are flanked by <br />decorative wood shutters. Additional multi -light wood casement windows (some with and <br />without shutters) are situated along the primary (east) fagade. The north and south side <br />fagade window pattern is composed of a mix of single and double casement, multi -light <br />wood windows, and double -hung wood windows. The rear (west) fagade features three <br />double casement multi -light wood windows and one double -hung wood window, along <br />with a single pedestrian door and a replacement, multi -light, wood sliding door. The attic <br />at the rear fagade features a dormer with two non -original or replacement vinyl hung <br />windows. All original windows throughout include a prominent wood window sill. <br />Additional architectural features include two stucco -clad chimneys along the north fagade, <br />a single metal vent under the projecting front gable and two round vents under the primary <br />front gable, and a metal mail slot adjacent to the primary entrance. The rear yard contains <br />a two-story accessory building consisting of a detached garage with an office above; a <br />smaller accessory shed building clad in wood siding with a shake roof, exposed rafters, <br />a door, and two windows; and a rear pool. The two-story building's primary (east) fagade <br />is designed with half timbering under the east -facing gable and shutters to match the main <br />residence. It also includes vinyl casement windows under the primary east gable, which <br />will be replaced with wood windows as part of a near -term work plan, and multi -light wood <br />doors. The property is landscaped with a front lawn, stone pathway, small shrubs, <br />medium and large -sized trees. <br />Character -defining features of the Geddes -Charlton House include, but may not be limited <br />to: its wood shake roof; steeply pitched cross -gable roof form with a secondary gable that <br />projects to the East towards North Greenleaf Street; minimal roof overhang with exposed <br />rafters; half timbering at both front gable ends at the primary (east) fagade; stucco siding; <br />one stucco -clad chimney at the north side facade (a second chimney was added in 1988 <br />and is therefore not considered a character -defining feature); main entrance door <br />composed of a wooden door with a rectangular panel detail and a wrought iron decorative <br />grill and metal hardware; a fixed wood window, below the eastern -most front gable at the <br />primary facade, with a 20-light muntin pattern, and multi -light wood casement windows <br />flanked by wood shutters; original fenestration throughout including single and double <br />casement, multi -light wood windows, and double -hung wood windows; prominent wood <br />Historic Resources Commission 1 — 3 9/7/2023 <br />
