Katie Justice House – c. 1925

(Below in italics is from the Burch Ave District NR listing; not verified for accuracy by this author.)

This one-story, front-gabled bungalow is three-bays wide and triple pile. The full-width engaged front porch has been partially enclosed with a room on the right side; this room has modern windows and an entrance facing the street with a gabled roof supported by knee braces. The porch is supported by tapered wood posts on brick piers. The house is covered with wood weatherboards and the shingled roof has exposed eaves and knee braces in the gables. There are one-over-one windows throughout with a twelve-light window flanked by louvered vents in the front gable. The first known occupant is Mrs. Katie Justice, widow of R.W. Justice, in 1925.

Garage, c. 1925 – One-story, front-gabled, frame garage with wood weatherboards, a metal roof, and two six-panel doors at the front.
