Characteristics:
Stone piers made of local river rock with square columns support a wraparound porch.
Wide bands of cedar shingles and classic wood siding emphasize the horizontal profile of the house.
Overscale white woodwork accentuates the sloping lines of the exterior and adds visual support for the high-pitched roof.
