 This 1914 Craftsman
bungalow is typical of its style. It is
ground-hugging with a low-pitched roof, off-set gables, wide
eaves, exposed roof rafters, and decorative beams. The large front porch, with its triple corner columns on clinker brick
piers, accents the horizontal line of the house. Also typical are the over-sized front door, with original bronze hardware,
and the large number and grouping of the casement windows. The interior of the house is open and flowing with dark oak
woodwork and ceiling beams. The tile around the living room fireplace is original and may be
Grueby. The slag glass
chandeliers and wall sconces in the living room and dining room are also original. The second story of the house has
recently been renovated using oak flooring and heart pine woodwork salvaged from a 1910
Craftsman bungalow that was torn down to make a way for apartment buildings.
