It combines dentils, brackets and Tudor-style drip molding, which is an unusual mix. The reconstructed front porch is also noted because original material was reused and Amish carpenters worked with early methods.","narrative":"This two-story frame house at 232 River Street in Madison, Ohio, dates to about 1850. It is rectangular with an ell-shaped plan, a hip roof of seamed metal, a stone foundation, and a mix of clapboard and flush siding. Its style is described as Italianate-Tuscan, but it carries an unusual feature: Tudor drip molding applied to an essentially Italianate form. The eaves are bracketed and dentilled, and the windows have double-hung two-over-two sash. Inside are random-width flooring and woodwork of walnut, maple and chestnut. The small porch in the south ell is original, while the front porch was recently rebuilt to match, using original material and early construction methods by Amish carpenters. Locally called the Gill House, it sits among well-kept houses on River Street, on a lot of less than one acre. It was recognized as one of the more interesting examples of its style in the village, though no detailed history of the property was recorded.","period_of_significance":"ca. 1850","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Italianate-Tuscan, with Tudor drip molding","criteria":[],"status_note":"Listed in good condition inside and outside; the front porch was recently reconstructed to match the original.
