18. Albion H. Eaton House, c. 1885 - C 271 Main street
The Eaton house, so named for a turn-of-the-century occupant, is a modest two-story, three-bay Queen Anne style dwelling that is sheathed in weatherboards and wood shingles and covered by a tall gable on hip roof. Its front elevation features a full width porch whose shed roof is supported by four posts. Behind the porch is a central entry, paired two-over-two doublehung sash, and a three-sided bay window which continues up to the second story where it'appears to have been originally surmounted by a short tower. The balance of the facade's second story contains a single central window and another pair over the one below. Both side elevations have asymmetrical fenestration patterns in addition to a two-story bay at the southeast corner.
