Description and history

It is a 1+1⁄2-story wood-frame structure, with a gable roof and clapboard siding. It is considered a fine example of Gothic Revival architecture in a cottage form, with vergeboard in the gables, and a bracketed porch. It was built in 1850. While it suffered an interior fire in 1980, it has retained much of its original wood details.[2] The house has been converted to office space.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 5, 1984.[1]
