Kitchen Wing, c. 1870

The attached 1 1/2 story wing is articulated by four distinct, yet interconnected roof planes, which earmarks the continuous organic growth of the kitchen wing. Initially, the wing was a narrow two by one bay working kitchen with a steep pitched gable roof. Circa 1890 a garage/wood shed was built to the back of the wing with a shed roof giving the wing a saltbox look. Circa 1940 a narrow front porch was remolded (existing configuration) and sheltered by a shallow, yet steeply pitched roof projecting from the wing's frieze board and supported by simple 4"x 4" posts. Finally, circa 1950, a storage shed was attached to the back of the garage, which continued the plane of the shed roof.

Off-centered to the right on the front (north) wing elevation is a two panel and four paned kitchen door, which is flanked on either side by a window; to the far left is a solitary sash which lights a small pantry. The fenestration on the side (east) elevation of the wing contains an attic sash centered within the gabled end, and a two over two sash on the first floor located to the right. The garage has a two panel plywood door that swings to the outside, and it is sheathed with clapboards while the storage shed on the southeast corner is sheathed with 8" to 12"vertical boards.
