Dated to about 1830, it is a two-story, wood-frame house with clapboard siding, a metal gable roof and a sandstone foundation. Its T-shaped plan includes a wing extending from the rear, and the front has four bays. Decorative features are modest: a simple front entranceway, small shuttered windows, corner pilasters and an entablature. The house has seen few alterations and remains in very good condition inside and out. It is still used as a residence, set on a small lot on a residential street among shade trees and shrubbery. It was listed because it is regarded as one of Fredericktown's oldest houses and a well-preserved example of Greek Revival architecture. It was recorded as part of a survey of the town's historic resources by the local historical society.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Greek Revival","criteria":[],"status_note":"Used as a residence; interior and exterior condition both listed as very good, with few alterations.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:12.909958-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/79003862.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79003862/a1f3e777fd-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/79003862/a1f3e777fd-1600.webp","licence":"Public domain","author":"Nyttend","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Early_Greek_Revival_Cottage.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Nyttend</a>, Public domain, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Early_Greek_Revival_Cottage.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71985546","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q138391521"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/knox-county/early-greek-revival-cottage-79003862/"}
