English Cottage Style built in 1921 Architect: Uknown Builder: J. Hammond Cost: $6,000

English Cottage style house. After World War I there was a wave of historic European styles – Normandy, Mediterranean, Tudor, and English Country. The steep roof and rolled roofing along the peaked gable ends are evocative of thatched roofs. Delicate fluted columns with Corinthian capitals with gold leaf detailing, flank the front door. Notice the matching diamond-paned windows throughout the house.
