Description

Several Craftsman characteristics have survived the remodeling of this two-story grove house. A side gable roof crowns the facade of the building, detailed with exposed rafters in the eaves and a central gablet containing a dormer. Clapboards trimmed with endboards sheathe the structure, which sits on a cobblestone foundation. Spanning the facade, a pent roof over an extension of the first floor probably corresponds to the former porch. Now the entry is located at the east end of the space and faces east. A pergola and a stone chimney are also features of the east elevation. Clusters of three double-hung sash windows are located on each side of the upper facade; the lower story fenestration is part of the alteration. The property, which includes some mature plantings and brick edged garden beds, is in good condition.

No information about the construction or ownership of this house was located. Now part of Tract 9049, subdivided relatively recently, the house appears to have originally been in lot 461 of the Ontario Colony. Most likely it was the grove house for that lot and is notable in that regard.
