Description and history

This 2+12-story wood-frame house was built in 1843–44. Unlike many Greek Revival houses, it has a side-gable roof, but it has corner pilasters and a single-story porch with Greek columns, and the gable is fully pedimented. [2]

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