This 3x4 bay, two and a half story vernacular house has a hipped, slate roof. The foundation is stone, and walls have aluminum siding. A hipped roof dormer at the center bay adorns the front facade. Small, square brackets decorate the box cornice. A large first floor picture window at the front right bay has stained glass lights across the top. Other windows are mostly 1/1; some appear to have been altered. The front facade, top story windows consist of two 1/1 and a smaller ribbon window; all have plain wood surrounds. There is a two story bay window on the west elevation capped with an overhanging gable roof and pediment. The front door is aluminum with a plain surround and small awning. The brick chimney is centrally located. 30A) Outbuilding, c. 1950
A one-car garage with gable roof, projecting eaves, clapboard siding, and corner boards is accessed by a short driveway off North Street.
This house is one of the few on North Street with a hipped roof, suggesting, along with its bracketed cornice, a Colonial Revival influence. According to city directories, Martin Sullivan was the first resident here in 1903. Sullivan ran a grocery store at 30 North Street and was city Alderman for the fourth Ward.
