Description and history

edit

Built c. 1845, this two-story Greek Revival house is one of the first to be built when the Auburndale area was subdivided for suburban development. The 2+12-story wood-frame house has a porch, supported by paneled square columns, that wraps around two sides. Its gable roof, while oriented with the roof line parallel to the street, has a fully pedimented gable end, as do the dormers that pierce the roof.[2]

The house was listed on the US National Register of Historic Places on September 4, 1986.[1]
