This Colonial Revival home was constructed at a cost of $10,000 in 1921. It is a perfect example of the symmetry and simplicity of the Colonial Revival design elements that swept the country after the turn of the century. From the four-square floor plan to the centrally located entryway, the architect's creation was both simple and balanced.

Over the eight decades since the house was built, successive owners have preserved many of the unique original features of the home while simultaneously adapting it to modern lifestyles. The staircase is still laid out in the classic "saddleback" pattern with separate flights of stairs from the living room and the kitchen joining at a landing before proceeding to the second floor. The original built-in china cabinet in the dining room remains and is a particular favorite of the current owners, Jeanne Morgan and Michael Mangrum. Other traditional features include push button light switches, and, should visitors arrive during a power failure, a unique mechanical door bell.

The most notable change to the house has been the enclosure of a back porch, now a casual living area. Adjoining the living area is a bright, spacious bathroom with a skylight which makes a wonderful companion to the upstairs bath with its period hexagonal floor tiles. Jeanne and Michael featured their beautiful home on the 2002 Home Tour.
