The Crosslin-Arida House

206 West Glenwood Avenue

This one-and-one half story frame home shows strong links to the Bungalow style that developed in the first quarter of the 20th century. Its front telescoping gable and braces appearing under the side roofs, casement windows with transoms, the exposed rafters on the front porch, and the floor plan are all elements of the Bungalow style. Its wall covering of stucco, the water table at the foundation, and its general appearance are also suggestive of the Mission influence. The recent addition of a metal roof imitating Spanish tile helps reinforce the Mission influence.  Since the last time this home was on tour the master bedroom, the main hallway and breakfast nook have been fully restored with hand-printed period wallpaper and furnished with reproduction Stickley furniture. Also, the garage has been completely rehabilitated.
