*P3a.  Description:  (Describe resource and its major elements. Include design, materials, condition, alterations, size, setting, and boundaries)
This one-story house is an example of Queen Anne subtype with extensive Colonial Revival detailing. It has a complex roof form consisting of a primary gable-on-hip roof and projecting polygonal bays with gable-with-shed roofs and consoles. Gable ends have collarbeams, wood hexagonal fish-scale shingle cladding, curved brackets and wood louvered vents. On the street-facing elevation, the peak of the primary gable has sunburst detailing; photographs on file with the City of Pasadena indicate that a matching detail, now missing, was also in the gable of the projecting bay. The peak of the gable on the side elevation has a lattice detail with cutout holes. The northern half of the west elevation has a Colonial Revival wrap-around front porch with classical turned balusters and Tuscan columns resting on raised panelized pedestals. Curved in plan, the porch is recessed under the extended main roof; a frieze with dentils extends under the full length of the roof over the porch. A small pediment aligned with the front entry and is enriched with plaster ornament in relief and dentils. The house has a composition shingle roof; walls clad in narrow exposure wood lap siding with corner boards; vertically oriented wood tongue-and-groove skirting at the base; wood fixed, transom and double-hung windows framed in window surrounds with cornices and curvilinear cut-out aprons; and an original wood front door with a rectangular glass panel with a wood transom above. The front yard is level with the sidewalk and is not enclosed. The house retains integrity and is contributing to the district.
