Park Hill (2002)

approx. p. 375

2 1/2-story and high basement stucco house set above street, cobblestone retaining wall; unusual combination of Mission form and Tudor-inspired half timber, similar to 14 Lattin Drive; high flight of stairs leads to enclosed entrance porch with buttressed end piers with caps; wide, central, segmental-arch window; original entrance door to left no longer accessible; entrance to right; half timber on upper stories; central bay with triple window in center of second story; projecting attic supported by brackets; segmental-arch triple window at attic level with segmental-arch roof; multi-pane sash on upper floors; piers at either end of house similar to those at ends of porch; one-story, three-sided, angled bay on east elevation.

Alterations: Garage extends from basement towards street causing entrance to be moved.

Significance: Park Hill (2002), pp. 312-313 and 375, identifies this house and 14 Lattin Drive as similar examples combining Mission massing with Tudor-inspired half timbering, stucco walls, buttressed porch piers, and segmental-arch openings.
