023Description
This Federal style two and a half story wood frame house was built in 1820. It appears on the 1835 Map of Eastport. It has a gable roof and a three bay front with center doorway facing Key Street. The doorway has a fanlight above the door and sidelight panels on either side of the door. Likely in the late 19th century, a bay window was added to the first floor on either side of the front door. A porch covered by a roof supported by two columns was likely added at the same time in front of the door.
