Eastlake Influence
This two-story unit has an intersecting gabled roof. Two small porches flank each side of the front facing section while a second story deck extends from the rear. A two-story bay ties anterior on the front gable. The bay itself has a small gabled roof. The windows (now aluminum framed) are of traditional Italianate style, bracketed decoratively framed and hooded. This residence is elaboratively decorated. A floral motif adorns all the gables while fish scale sheathing enhances the main gables. The eaves are bracketed at the corners. Each porch excluding the second story rear deck includes a spindle screen and turned neo-classical columns.Collection
