ARCHITECTURAL DESCRIPTION
The this two-story wood-framed dwelling has the same floor plan as the Horne/Jacobson House which is Folk Vernacular. The added Queen Anne elements: a tower placed in the right front corner of the structure and contrasting colors on the front gable give it a Victorian look. The steep pitched, front gabled roof and long window shapes are also common in the Neoclassical style.
