This tiny house is a carpenter-built Queen Anne elaboration with latticework at the eave line. The gabled dormer is balanced by a small upper-story recessed balcony and a clipped gable. A rounded, turreted sunporch is on the principal level. Carpenter Gothic brackets embellish a bay window. Pressed-metal trim, pinnacles, and finials embellish each peak of the roof. It is gratifying that this delightful gem has survived almost unaltered.
