This home is designated by Kennett Township as a Historic Resource in which they note "Though not a particularly old house, this house appears to be an intact example of an early 20th c. Bungalow or Craftsman syle house whose architectural features may make it eligible for the NR (depending on the interior). The stone garage compliments the house, a feature of that style as the country entered into the automobile age." The Township Historic Board is a recommending board only, not an HARB.
