The house is a broad mixture of different architectural styles. As one drives down Harrison Boulevard beautiful houses adorn either side of the street. Most have stayed in their original place of residence. To provide context the house today must be compared and contrasted with its original design.At first glance it appears to be of the craftsman style due to the gabled awning over the main entrance. Another example of the craftsman style used in the home is the faux roof rafters that are less prominent than in the ordinary craftsman home. The upper level also sports two flat roofed dormers that are also characteristic of this style. It is definitely an architecturally interesting home, some very unattractive aspects of the house. Both are architectural oddities that make one wonder. One might think that this one street is the only one with all the immaculate houses. several small features on the exterior of the house both add and detract from its grace.
