History Photos


The house when it sat on the corner of Trenton and College Ave, facing east, prior to being moved to its current location in the 1950’s. It was built in 1922 by one of the Lewis brothers.


How the house looked in 1985 when the current owners purchased it.


The current owners started renovation in 1985 with the kitchen and dining room. In this photo, a truck was taking away plaster and lathe from the exterior walls for insulation installation.


The deck was added in the mid-90s, while working on repainting the exterior.


The garage was added and the porch renovated in the early 2000s.

10 Things the Owners Love About This House

  1. The views out of all windows.
  2. The birds nesting inside the awnings, watching babies hatch, parents feeding.
  3. Always a place to plant something new in this yard.
  4. Neighborhood is the best! Such a variety of nice dog and cat lovers, a great place to walk.
  5. Basement is so handy for storage and for hanging laundry.
  6. The way the light, shining through the old glass of the original windows, creates wavy shadows on the walls.
  7. The little window over the bathtub.
  8. Ron loves his shop.
  9. The kitchen layout.
  10. Sitting on the deck looking at the backyard in the summer – the pin oak with the shade garden, and the crape myrtles on the stone wall.
