Other Locational Data: Assessor's Parcel Number 002-091-06 *P3a. Description: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) Rectangular in plan, this one-and-a-half-story, stucco-clad residence displays the characteristics of the Tudor Revival style. The building is capped with asteeply-pitched hipped roof intersected by three front-gables that step back from northeast to southwest. The roof line terminates flush with the exterior walls, with no overhangs except at selected windows where small extension forms hoods. The fagade is divided into three sections that correspond to the front gables. The north section contains a centered, deeply recessed pair offlat-headed, twelve-light casement windows. On axis above this window, a smaller, diamond-paned window with a wood sill is also recessed; its head terminates at the raised end of the north gable. Corbels punctuate the shallow projection. The central section features a slightly raised window consisting of three eight-light casements beneath a hood. The primary, hipped, roof wraps above this section of the fagade and culminates in a front gablet pierced by three pipe vents arranged in a triangle. Set back substantially, the south wing contains the entry. Ornamental half-timbering distinguishes the gable face and the fagade of the covered entry porch below it. A vent made of horizontal louvers occupies the apex of the gable. An extended rake terminates the south side of the gable. The entry porch is accessed via awood-trimmed arch that is flanked by rectangular openings screened by turned spindlework. Eight-light French doors face east while the wood front door faces south onto the space, which is elevated four steps above the entry path. Windows and dormers with mufti-light, wood-framed casement windows in a variety of configurations are asymmetrically arranged on the side elevations. One window facing south fo the entry porch from the center wing is distinguished by a wood mullion in the form of a turned colonnette. An attached, stucco-clad chimney with a corbelled brick cap and three chimney pots marks the north elevation. Alterations are minor and include the demolition of the original garage and anon-original paving on the entry path. The residence is highly intact and in excellent repair. *P3b.
