It describes the house as one of Georgetown's most intact and least altered late nineteenth-century dwellings and an excellent example of a Victorian-era house.","narrative":"Built around 1885, this two-story wood-frame house stands at the northeast corner of Block 69 in Georgetown's Lost Addition, on a lot 60 feet wide and 120 feet deep. It follows a central-hall plan with an integral rear ell and has beveled wood siding, shingle imbrication, and a gable roof. A one-story, three-bay porch with Doric columns runs across the north front. Details include a projecting gabled bay over the entry with paired decorative windows, jigsawn and bracketed trim on the second-story windows, a bell-cast shingled upper story above a denticulated course, and carved eaves. A board-and-batten rear addition and a west window bay were added. The house is described as one of Georgetown's most intact and least altered late nineteenth-century dwellings and an excellent Victorian-era example. Its setting is a mostly residential area south of the central business district, with a modern service station to the east and a modern dwelling to the west. It remains in residential use and good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Victorian-era house","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is listed as good, and the house is still in residential use.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.469664-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/93/9707/40970793/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86000987.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86000987/a3b981d88f-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86000987/a3b981d88f-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"Renelibrary","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:214WUniversityHouse1.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Renelibrary</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:214WUniversityHouse1.jpg"},"district":{"nrhp_refnum":"86000991","name":"Belford Historic District","url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/districts/texas/belford-historic-district-86000991/"},"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40970793","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110000560"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/williamson-county/house-at-214-w-university-86000987/"}
