Guy L. Fornes House. Two-story gable-and-wing type house with weatherboard, 2/2 sash windows, and a large 1/1 sash beneath the front porch. Other original features are a pedimented front gable, boxed eaves, and a glazed and paneled front door. The porch has Craftsman brick and battered posts and a ramped Craftsman-style railing, which may be replacements for the original porch supports. The earliest directory listing for this house, in 1930, lists Guy L. Fornes, a barber, as occupant. Mrs. Lottie R. Lawrence was owner-occupant in 1940s-1950s.
