This Colonial Revival building, built in 1911, has a complex, steeply pitched cross-gabled roof with
composition shingles. The main roof is side-gabled, with a taller cross-gable towards the rear of the
property, a prominent, off-center front gable above a front bay window, a small hipped roof over the bay
itself, and a hipped shed roof over a semi-enclosed porch. The eaves beneath the bay roof and porch are
bracketed. The porch features rectangular pillars with three wooden sash windows, either fixed or
casement, enclose the front porch wall. Windows are double-hung wooden sash and include three windows
on the front bay at the basement level and a window beneath the porch at basement level, both covered in
wood. The walls are false bevel drop siding. The porch stairs are wooden with a concrete first step and
wooden porch supports; a handrail on the left side of the porch steps is constructed of iron pipe. An
attached garage is located on the southern wall of the building, a simple flat-roofed structure with barn
doors, one of which is covered with a sheet of plywood. The southern wall of the garage appears to be
covered in stucco and sits at the edge of the property line.

This small 1918 California bungalow is side-gabled with a front-gabled wing containing an offset frontgabled
porch, supported by two rectangular pillars. The porch floor and steps are concrete. The walls are
false beveled drop siding with shingles beneath the gable ends. At the peak of the gables, both on the
building ends and the porch, is a small vent with vertical stickwork. Windows are double-hung vinyl sash
with divided lights on the upper pane and a single light on the lower pane. Decorative beams protrude from
the lower corners of the gable ends. A driveway with Hollywood strips (two strips of concrete with grass in
between the strips) is located just south of the building, with a simple front-gabled garage behind the house
with false beveled drop siding and an offset wooden barn door. Other than the replaced windows, the
building retains a high degree of integrity and is a contributor to the district.

This Craftsman bungalow, built in 1918, has a front-gabled roof and a full-width porch located under the
main roof supported by four rectangular pillars. The outer two porch pillars have brick porch supports, the
inner pair flanking the stairs have rectangular wooden porch supports above a terrazzo staircase with brick
supports. A vent is located at the peak of the gable end with cross-hatched stickwork, and knee braces
protrude from the gable end. The walls are asphalt siding. A garage door and sunken driveway are located
to the right of the stairs, leading to a basement garage, with a window at the basement level located to the
left of the stairs. Despite alterations to the siding and the addition of a garage door, the building retains
sufficient integrity to remain a contributor to the district.

This California Bungalow, built in 1920, has a side-gabled hip-on-gable main roof and multiple roof
planes, including a rear cross-gable that is taller than the front side-gabled roof and a front-gabled porch,
both of which are also hip-on-gable. The gable ends have a vent with vertical stickwork directly beneath
the gable. The rafter tails at the gable ends extend farther than the edge of the roof, while the other rafter
tails are exposed but terminate at the roof edge. Walls are false bevel drop siding. The porch is slightly
offset to the north from the center line of the building, and features an arched entryway supported by two
rectangular pillars, with a concrete porch base that forms a small patio to the north of the front door.
Wrought iron handrails and balustrade have replaced the original handrails. The front door features
sidelights. Windows are single hung wood sash with divided lights in the upper sash and a single pane in
the lower sash. Aside from the wrought-iron porch railing and balustrade, the building retains sufficient
integrity to be a contributor to the district.
