 Reportedly designed by Baumann and Baumann, this modified four square home was built in 1906 for H.A.E. Parsons.
A hip roof with front and side dormers add importance to the house. The one-story three quarters front porch has rounded wood columns with Ionic (Scamozzi) capitals and sawn wood balustrade The first floor front leaded facade windows are original, as is the transom above the front door. There is a brick interior offset rear chimney. Mantels are oak with hand beveled mirrors.
When purchased three years ago, this home had been stripped of its interior, broken into seven apartments and condemned. The current owner has reclaimed this structure to two family status. Light filled rooms, bright colors and polished wood floors make this home a wonderful asset for the neighborhood.
