Historic registry records state that the current edifice has been altered significantly to allow for apartments and no longer has the elegant look of the Victorian style home seen above. Three story shingle sided house with conical roofed tower with an acorn finial seen at the left. Doric style columns on the front entry and along the porch. The open front porch extends to the left curving around to the back. A small upper story open porch seen to the right with rounded arch and keystone in the center. To the left is No. 352; to the right No. 366. See also mcalA11F16i41 and mcalB19F05i03. Re: Burlington Free Press, November 9, 1957. Show less
