Architect and builder are not stated.","why_significant":"The form describes it as one of many fine older houses in Vermilion and values its distinctive carved wooden ornament. It states that more research is needed to determine its history, so no specific historical associations are given.","narrative":"This two-story Italianate house on the west side of Washington Street in Vermilion, Ohio, was built in the 1880s. It sits on a stone foundation with wood-frame walls, a gable roof of asphalt shingles, a five-bay front and a T-shaped plan. Carved wood ornament around the pediments, over the windows and on the porch gives the house its distinction. Shingle siding has since been applied to the exterior walls, and an ornate iron fence encloses the small lot, which also has shrubbery and shade trees. The house is still used as a residence and is in good to very good condition. The survey describes it as one of many fine older houses in Vermilion and notes that more research is needed to establish its past history. It was included in a multiple-resource group of Vermilion properties, chiefly for its distinctive wooden ornament and its contribution to the town's older residential character.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Italianate","criteria":[],"status_note":"Used as a residence; interior in good condition and exterior in very good condition.
