The house is built of local brownstone and plastered over, and the form describes it as mid-eighteenth century.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is one of the best preserved and least remodeled mid-eighteenth century houses in the area, and that it accurately represents eighteenth century living styles. It states that the house and kitchen/bake oven are intact on their original site, with excellent interior preservation including woodwork, flagstone floor and some original paint. Agriculture and architecture are the areas checked.","narrative":"A two-and-a-half-story miller's house of local brownstone stands on the Warren Cole property in Skippack, Montgomery County, Pennsylvania. The house is four bays wide and two rooms deep, with chimneys at each gable end, a moulded cornice with return and a steep shingled roof. Its stone walls are plastered over except beneath the front porch, and shutters appear on all but the first floor front. Beside it stands a one-and-a-half-story summer kitchen with a bake oven projecting from its back, sharing a chimney with the oven. A Swiss/German bank barn of stone below and wood above completes the group. The house is regarded as one of the best preserved and least remodeled mid-eighteenth century houses in the area. Its interior woodwork, flagstone floor and some original paint remain, and the house and kitchen still occupy their original site. Restoration is under way so that the house can serve as a depository for historical purposes.","period_of_significance":"18th Century","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":null,"criteria":[],"status_note":"Being restored so it can serve as a depository for historical purposes.","vacant_flag":null,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-haiku-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.1-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 17:11:29.487475-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_PA/73001653.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73001653/2e3e619f86-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/73001653/2e3e619f86-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Shuvaev","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Warren_Z._Cole_House_01.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">Shuvaev</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Warren_Z._Cole_House_01.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71998165","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Warren_Z._Cole_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q7970613"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/pennsylvania/montgomery-county/cole-warren-z-house-73001653/"}
