Description

High walls and gates protect this 1.06 acre property from curious eyes. It appears to contain a one and two-story residence in the Spanish Colonial Revival Style. The gray stuccoed structure is capped by a tiled gable roof with purlins exposed in the gable ends. Fenestration consists mostly of casement windows and trim is wrought iron. Brick paves the driveway and a large courtyard. Fruit and other trees dot the property. Further details, including condition and integrity, are unknown.

his property remains a mystery. Clearly it predates the subdivision surrounding it. Because of its presumed age (circa 1925 based on style) and its size, it can be reasonably expected that this was the grove house for lot 396 of the Ontario Colony. As such it is a significant resource in the context of Upland's agricultural past.
