An excellent example of the Bungalow Style, this house occupies a prominent
corner lot, and displays all original detailing, sheathing, and probably even
the original color scheme. The original occupant was probably George Nelson.
After his death, his wife, Mrs. Mary K. Nelson, continued to live here into
the 19401s.
