House

-A A +A
c. 1927. 108 W. Maple St.

This picture-perfect image of a small period revival house of the twenties contains references to the rural medieval, with just a touch of the Colonial Revival. The eaves of the steeply pitched roof sweep over to encompass the attached garage on one side and a gate on the other.
