The house was built in 1878 for Peter Ritter and his wife, Elizabeth. [2] It was designed in the Carpenter Gothic architectural style. [2] It was acquired by John C. Witt on March 1, 1886. [2] By January 1899, it was purchased by A. P. Odil. [2]
Carpenter Gothic, also sometimes called Carpenter's Gothic, and Rural Gothic, is a North American architectural style-designation for an application of Gothic Revival architectural detailing and picturesque massing applied to wooden structures built by house-carpenters. The abundance of North American timber and the carpenter-built vernacular architectures based upon it made a picturesque improvisation upon Gothic a natural evolution. Carpenter Gothic improvises upon features that were carved in stone in authentic Gothic architecture, whether original or in more scholarly revival styles; however, in the absence of the restraining influence of genuine Gothic structures, the style was freed to improvise and emphasize charm and quaintness rather than fidelity to received models. The genre received its impetus from the publication by Alexander Jackson Davis of Rural Residences and from detailed plans and elevations in publications by Andrew Jackson Downing.
The house has been listed on the National Register of Historic Places since December 12, 1976. [3]
