It has lap siding, a gabled composition roof, a shed porch supported by wood posts, four-over-four double-hung windows, and a rectangular plan. A garage sits at the rear and a chain link fence encloses the lot. It remains on its original site and is still used as a residence, with its condition recorded as fair. Local historian Lita Mayberry described houses in this part of Keltys as \"B houses,\" smaller than the Type A houses. They were generally painted white, had five or six rooms and small porches, and sat on smaller yards with board fences. Some had single garages and utility connections. The house was listed for its architecture at the local level, as an unusually early surviving example of company housing in Texas.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"Vernacular Victorian","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Present condition listed as fair; present use is residence.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:54:21.373268-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/opastorage/live/56/9679/40967956/content/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_TX/88002793.pdf"},"photo":null,"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/40967956","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/McGilbert_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q14711032"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/texas/angelina-county/mcgilbert-house-88002793/"}
