(#45)120 North Street/ c.1885 / Beauregard House
(Same as Bouregard of 144 N. Champlain Street)
This is a one-and-a-half-story 3 x 3 bay tri-gable, south facing house has an ell on the east side. At the rear of the ell, there is a more recent one-story, 2 x 2 bay enclosed porch. There is also a one-story 1 x 2 bay addition in front of the ell, serving as the main entrance. It has a hipped roof and a brick half-wall. The rest of the building is clad with aluminum siding. The replacement windows are 1/1 aluminum. The foundation is stone; the wall structure is balloon wood frame; the roofing is slate. There are no chimneys.



Early Sanborn maps (from 1894, 1900 and 1912) indicate that this house formerly featured multiple 1 1/2 story outbuildings in the rear that extended north to meet a barn. By c.1925, the barn had been removed and a separate residence (#120 1/2) was built..
In 1886 Louis Beauregard had a grocery store at this location.. In 1896 there were 3 children still living at home (William was a painter and George, a clerk, at 111 North Street.) Louis died in 1899 and Mrs. Louis Beauregard moved the family to 144 N. Champlain Street where she continued to sell groceries and meats.
