Also address integrity) <br /> <br />The Markel House is architecturally significant as an intact example of the Spanish Colonial Revival style. According to the original <br />building permit, dated January 2, 1935, the residence and garage were constructed for Jules W. Markel and his wife Ada at a cost of <br />$4,000. The Markel family owned and occupied the the home for nearly 25 years. In 1960, Ada Markel, widowed since 1952, sold <br />the home to Robert and Alberta Schwarm, who used a Veteran's Administration loan to finance the purchase. The Schwarm's <br />remained in the home for 14 years. In the 1970s, ownership shifted twice, when the Schwarms sold the property to Marco and <br />Magdalena Gupton, who in turn sold the property the next year to John and Jane Hooper. The Hoopers owned and occupied the <br />property until 1 984, after which point ownership shifted multiple times. <br /> <br />(See Continuation Sheet 3 of 3.) <br /> <br />B11.
