Status: Record Updated Street Address: 5695 Dewey Road City: Madison Current Owner: Peter J. and Mark A. Gosline Original Owner: Levi Benjamin LCHS ID #: 369 Year Built: 1825 Builder: Unknown Architectural Style: Greek Revival Architect: Unknown Description and Notes: Some photos, history, flat maps, etc. This story and a half, side gabled house is a vernacular take on the Greek Revival style. The foundation of the house is stone. The first floor's facade has no symmetry to it. Five windows are on the first floor, all 6/6. Two of the windows are paired together. The half story has three small rectangular windows, evenly spaced across the facade. There is a single story portion to the facade which appears to have the main entrance to the house as well as a picture window. The sides of the house also have 6/6 windows, and one can see the roofline has cornice returns. There appears to be a small addition on the rear of the house along with a open back porch.
