It follows a bungalow plan and is clad in wood shingles, with a splayed base and siding below. The gable roof has composition shingles, exposed rafter ends and timber brackets. Windows are wood-sash, double-hung units with one-over-one lights. A one-bay gable-roofed porch on the west elevation has brick piers, and a small stoop and an exterior brick chimney complete the exterior. The house was recorded as part of a survey of historic resources in Ennis and was recognized for its architecture. The survey describes it as one of the most finely crafted and executed local examples of a bungalow. The combination of cladding materials, triangular braces, multiple roof planes, cantilevered window bays and porch urns is described as a prototypical bungalow composition. The architect and builder are not known, and the house remains in residential use in good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungalow","criteria":[],"status_note":"Condition is listed as good; present use is residential.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.665621-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/50/9689/40968950/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86002532.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40968950","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110001930"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/ellis-county/house-at-810-north-preston-86002532/"}
