Description and history

edit

The 2+12-story wood-frame house was built c. 1849–1855, probably by Samuel Crafts, who also built a number of other Italianate houses nearby. The L-shaped building has deep eaves with paired brackets, and a distinctive three-part window on the second floor below one of the gables. A heavily bracketed porch in the crook of the L shelters the front entry.[2]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on October 17, 1985.[1]
