It sits in a residential area in the southeast part of the original townsite. The wood-frame house has weatherboard siding, a wood shingle gable roof, and exposed rafters and beams under wide eaves. Wood double-hung windows with one-over-one lights appear singly, paired and grouped, and an exterior brick chimney rises on the north side. A three-bay shed porch spans the symmetrical east facade, supported by massive brick columns carrying an elongated elliptical arch, with a brick balustrade and half-piers marking the entry bay. A stick-detailed gabled dormer is centered above. A weatherboard carriage house or shed stands at the rear. The survey calls it an excellent example of bungalow architecture in Victoria, and that distinction supports its listing. It remains in residential use and is in good condition.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Bungalow","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Present condition listed as good; present use is residential; a weatherboard carriage house/shed stands at the rear.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.783629-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/88/9703/40970388/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/86002570.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86002570/0ac80dbe9d-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86002570/0ac80dbe9d-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 3.0","author":"ProfReader","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:E.H.D._Bendt_House.JPG\" rel=\"noopener\">ProfReader</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:E.H.D._Bendt_House.JPG"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40970388","wikipedia":null,"wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q110002424"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/victoria-county/bendt-e-h-d-house-86002570/"}
