This detached 1z story single-family gable-ended residence has a square plan ,
The front consts of an entrance under a shed-roofed addition which gives a

shingles and rests on a concrete foundation. The gable roof is covered with
a-sphalt shingles and features a west-facing gabled dormer and an east-facing
shed-roofed dormer directly above the shed-roofed salt-box-like east addition.
A metal stovepipe is centrally located. The axis of the roof is perpendi-
cular to the street.
