Other Locational Data: 002-064-04 *P3a. Description: (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries.) Finished in smooth stucco, this L-shaped, one-story residence features the asymmetrical composition typical of the English Revival style. Across-gabled roof of intermediate pitch caps the residence, which has shallow overhanging eaves with rolled edges, meant to suggest thatching. An additional feature highlighting the Medieval roots of the English Reviva!/Tudor style is the use in the gables of unhewn logs, which are exposed at the gable ends. The principal design element on the fagade is a projecting front-gabled bay with a deeply recessed arched window ringed by a multi-light transom with wood frames. A narrow rectangular vent with horizontal louvers pierces the apex of the front gable end, which is accented with applied heraldic ornament. Placed at a 45-degree angle from the intersection of the front and side gables, an imbedded conical tower capped with wood shingles shelters the entry. Deeply recessed within an arched opening, the entry is characterized by a wood door with a small arched light screened behind an iron grill. Applied heraldic ornament and an iron sconce adorn the wall of the entry tower, which is elevated on three steps. Fenestration on the facade is provided by a set of wood-framed twelve-light casement windows on the east wall of the projecting wing. Overlooking the patio, similar twelve-light casements frame a fixed eighteen-light window. Side elevations are also fenestrated with wood-framed casement and double-hung sash windows in a variety of configurations. The north elevation features an attached stucco-covered chimney with a flared base. Alterations to the property include the replacement of the original garage door. In excellent repair, the residence is otherwise highly intact and further enhanced by mature trees and landscaping. *P3b. Resource Attributes: (list attributes and codes) HP2.
