Edward H. Cheek House – c. 1919

This two-story, hip-roofed house is three-bays wide and double pile. A hip-roofed front porch extends the full-width of the façade and is supported by tapered wood posts on brick piers with an original wood railing. The hipped roof has exposed, molded rafter tails and two tall, interior brick chimneys. A hip-roofed front dormer has three nine-light casement windows. The house is covered with original wood weatherboards and has one-over-one replacement windows throughout. The front door is an original single-pane over raised-panel door with matching sidelights and transom. The earliest known occupant is Edward H. Cheek (foreman) in 1919.
