            This Queen Anne style home was built circa 1913. It has been in Mrs. John Blackstock’s family since its construction. It features bay windows, irregular shaped rooms and a wraparound porch supported by free classic columns. The long central hall displays decorative classic columns and pocket doors leading into the formal areas.

            The property upon which this home sits has been in the family since the late nineteenth century. It originally included the entire block and constituted a town farm.
