Also address integrity) The Martz House is architecturally significant as an intact example of the Tudor Revival style. No original building permit was located for this property. The residence first appears in Orange County Tax Assessor Records in 1930, at which point it was owned by Edgar L. Martz and his wife Fern. By 1931, ownership had shifted, when Martz sold fhe residence to William S. Allen, the manager of Banks Huntley and Company, and his wife Patsy. The Allens retained ownership until the mid-1930s. By 1937, Harry F. Petersmeyer, a sales manager and advertising agent at Excelsior Creamery Company, and his wife Florence occupied the property. Residency had shifted again a year later, when Charles Guy Dowds, a real estate agent and his wife Gladys occupied the home. The Dowds remained in 1920 North Greenleaf Street until the early 1940s. By 1947, Isaac Chester Golden and his wife Nora occupied the home. After Isaac Golden's death in 1956, Nora Golden remained in the property until at least the early 1960s.
