This two-and-one-half story, three-by-two bay gable-front and wing house shows the influence of Shingle style architecture in the shingles placed in the front gable peak. A large two-story porch disrupts the front façade, wrapping around to the southern side of the house. This house has two-over-two double-hung sash window on the first floor in the front, with the remaining windows being one-over-one double-hung sash. There is a projecting bay window on the southern side of the building. The roof is covered in slate in a common decorative pattern using a few courses of fishscale shingles that interrupt the rectangular-shaped shingles.
The Hopkins map done in 1890 shows Mrs. O. Peltiers at this address.1 A Louis Pelletier, employed as a city carter, lived on Convent Square, first listed in 1890.2 This date therefore serves as a rough date for construction. No record of a Mrs. Pelletier was found. 11890 Hopkins Map.
