Victorian

This symmetrical one-story hip-roofed house appears to retain all of its original exterior features. Decorative boards in alternating notched and sawtooth patterns adorn the large attic gables above the front and side elevations. Sawtoothing runs at the base of the entablature, between the intricate sawn foliate spandrels at the simple, turned porch posts. The earliest known occupant of the house was grocer W. H. Hicks who lived here from around 1910 until the late 1920s.

This two-story, T-shaped frame house with a rear one-story ell has returns, patterned shingles and a lunette vent with a "keystone" in each of the attic gables. Much of the wraparound porch has been enclosed; three of the original box posts remain. Dating from early in this century, the house was occupied for many years by Mrs. Cora D. Morris beginning in the 1910s.
