Resource Description: |
A small bungalow court of six units in the Colonial Revival style, Colonial Court consists of 6 small frame cottages sited facing each other along a central walkway. The white-painted cottages are set amidst lush greenery and flowering shrubs. Each facing pair has a differently detailed entrance portico: the front bungalows have arched pediments, the middle bungalows, triangular pediments and the rear bungalows broken pediments. Round vents, corbelled chimneys and small-paned windows are addition features. Sited near the freeway (210), the cottages nevertheless retain an air of seclusion and quite repose, oblivious to the rushing traffic to the north.
Ann Scheid, Barbara Drachlis 2/1979
