Description

This frame, story and a half home has been built on a slightly sloping lot. The wood siding is dark, with white eves and window trim. The front porch covers the entire front of the home. Several steps lead up to the porch. Vertical, white, Craftsman-style columns extend to the porch roof. The home features double hung windows. Near one end of the porch, a narrow brick chimney may be seen running vertically along a side wall and through the roof of the home. A dormer is visible over the porch. The only visible landscaping is one small tree that has been planted close to the front porch. The number 1382 is written on a label that has been stuck to the lower left corner of the slide.
