Why it's listed

Built in 1930 at the southwest corner of Chiltern Drive and Deerpath in Lake Forest, this French Norman house was designed by architect Stanley D. Anderson for developer Henry K. Turnbull. It is the only Anderson-designed house newly built in the Second Addition of Deerpath Hill Estates, laid out on the former Frank Hibbard estate. The white-painted brick house has an L-shaped plan, a steeply pitched slate roof with flared eaves, wall dormers with casement windows, wrought iron balconies, and a conical-roofed stair tower at the angle of the L. Inside, a powder room tucked beneath the stair reflects an Anderson habit. It was the last house built in the development before the Great Depression and Turnbull's bankruptcy halted construction for about twenty years. Its location at an entrance followed the planners' practice of marking entrances with Anderson houses. The exterior remains unchanged, and the central rooms are largely intact.

Significance in brief: The house is argued to be significant for community planning and development and for architecture. It was the only Stanley D. Anderson-designed house newly built in the Second Addition and the last house built in Deerpath Hill Estates before the Great Depression. It shows developer Henry K. Turnbull's and Anderson's practice of placing an Anderson-designed house at each development entrance.

What listing means for this property

National Register listing is honorary for a privately owned home: it does not by itself restrict what an owner may do with their own money, and it does not require public access. Restrictions come from local landmark or historic-district ordinances, which are separate (how they differ).

Owner-occupied houses are not eligible for the 20% federal rehabilitation tax credit, which applies to income-producing buildings, but many states offer credits for homeowners. Listing also opens the door to preservation easements and to buying a plaque. Start with what listing means for homeowners, renovating a listed house and selling one.

General information, not legal or tax advice. Rules change; confirm with your State Historic Preservation Office or a qualified adviser.
