20) 65 North Street / c. 1900

This one and a half story, gable front, 3x3 bay, vernacular house has a left side-hall plan and an addition on the east facade with an asphalt shingled roof. The foundation is stone, walls are covered with vinyl siding and feature corner boards, plain fascia and a ventilator at the gable end. The windows are mostly 1/1 double- hung and feature shutters. A modern hood with two large brackets and a gable front shelters both front doors with one on the main block and the other on the addition. Doors are aluminum with plain surrounds. A two bay wide, one story shed roof addition spans the east facade and meets a rear, one story wing. The addition may have recently been converted from a porch. A rear deck is a recent addition.

20a) Outbuilding, c. 1970 (Non-contributing)

A small box shed with gable roof, corner boards and T-111 siding rests on boards in back and west of the house.

Sanborn maps indicate that this house was altered shortly after it was built. The form of the house and its side hall plan suggest a Greek Revival style influence, although it was built after the style was popular.
