It has a low hip roof, lap siding, a limestone coursed foundation with a partial cellar, and an irregular plan. One section sits under a gable roof and another under a hip roof, divided by a veranda with scroll-work railing. Details include a bracketed cornice with pendants, segmental arched drip moulds over the windows, a bay window, and a circular cherry stairway. A rear wing gained an added story and a porch was added at the rear left. The interior has been modernized, though most original appointments remain. J.C. Thompson, the original owner, was supposedly the first master of the area's Masonic Lodge, and Masonic emblems are incised in the woodwork of one room. The house sits among about five acres of trees, set toward the back of the lot, and has been included in local house and garden tours.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Italianate/Queen Anne (with a question mark on the form)","criteria":[],"status_note":"Recorded in 1975 as a private dwelling in excellent interior and exterior condition; modernized inside, but most original appointments kept.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:12.034894-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/79002749.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71985292","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":null},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/franklin-county/thompson-builder-house-79002749/"}
