W. C. Scercy House – c. 1925

Text below in italics from the Burch Avenue National Register nomination; not verified for accuracy by this author.

This one-story, side-gabled bungalow is four-bays wide and triple pile with a shed-roofed front dormer. The full-width engaged front porch is supported by tapered wood posts on brick piers. The house rests on a brick foundation with two interior, ridgeline brick chimneys. It has vinyl siding and windows. An original eight-light window remains in the dormer. The two front doors are modern replacements. The earliest known occupant is W. C. Scercy (machine operator) in 1925. The house is currently a duplex.
