Description

3 3/4"h x 4 3/4"w sepia photo of a heavy dark stone Richardson style house that had a big flat roofed porch, the same house as the previous photo. This view was from the street and back toward the porch and sun room. A large power pole was in the way of the view. The flat roofed porch was rendered nearly invisible, being shrouded in vines, which may have made it cool in the summer. The sunroom had three bays on the narrow side and six bays on the long side. One bay on the narrow end was a door to a set of six steps to the sidewalk. Each window was plain--no muntins--tall and relatively narrow with a good sized transom pane at the top. The window shades were carefully pulled three-quarters of the way down. There was only one window in the center of the second floor wall above the sun porch and it was obscured by the power pole. There were two large windows with transom on the street side second story. The high pyramid roof had a generous overhang on each side. There were two chimneys that pierced the roof on the sunroom side, with a hip roof dormer between them. There was a similar dormer on the street side with two small double hung windows for ventilation. Text on verso: in pencil "079"
