Structure Description
Quincy Press Brick is used extensively through this Romanesque Revival/Queen Anne residence. Brick detailing includes vertical banding over the windows, a herringbone design near the roof line, crossed brick on the east bay, corner curved brick, and a quoined chimney one the west side of the house. A twin Roman arched window on the front second story facade is a unique element of the Romanesque Revival style. The foundation is limestone as is the lintel over the main 3-bay window. This lintel probably featured decorative scroll work at one time. The entire main structure is covered with a pressed tin roof.
Stained glass is featured prominently in the transom over the front double door, on the front landing, and above the main first story window. Butternut wood is featured throughout the interior, notably on the front stairs. The front porch is a later addition, as noted by the foundations, and features classical elements including Ionic rounded pilasters.
