The Greek revival details on this home, built 1845-1850, were obscured by later additions and siding until the current owners uncovered the wide frieze board under the gabled roof.  The handsome classic doorway is flanked with turned double pillars, sidelights, and glass transom.  Contrasting colors of paint emphasize the six-over-six windows and moldings.  A small addition, once a separate apartment, has been incorporated into the one-family home.  The current owners have retained and restored many original features in this home, including the 2-panel doors with original hardware, front and rear stairways and wavy glass windows in the original front parlor.  The front foyer has original plank floors and a well-preserved front stairway which has a unique 90 degree curve as it ascends to the second floor.       

  
The home owners found this small, well-worn shoe under the floor planks in the foyer during a recent renovation.  Legend has it that a shoemaker once lived in the home.  Note the beautiful front stairway with its unique 90 degree turn, and the well-worn treads on the back stairway leading up from the kitchen.
