Exterior is brick with a stretcher bond,stone sills and lintels. <br /> The roof is a shallow gable with short eave overhang and large frieze. The soffit was enclosed prior to landmarking. Two <br /> wings were added flanking the original structure,later windows were installed in those additions. Windows are double-hung 6- <br /> over-6 on the second story and double-hung 6-over-9 on the first story. Some fixed windows are found in the original structure. <br /> Casements exist in the later additions. A front porch spans the original structure,a side entrance has a stepped stoop. <br /> ALTERATIONS: Two wing additions were added sometime in the 20th century(sometime after 1946?). COA#1986-0903 <br /> allowed for the construction of an addition to the west side of the garage,as well as reroofing of the south addition. COA <br /> #1986-1008 allowed for re-roofing and aluminum soffits on the south wing addition. A`cabana'was constructed attached to <br /> the garage without COA in 1987. COA#1987-0807 allowed for the construction of the front porch. COA#1990-0606 allowed <br /> for reconstruction of the deteriorated chimney with new bricks. COA#1997-0829 allowed for masonry repairs to the main <br /> chimney. COA#1996-0912 allowed for additional repairs and modifications to the masonry of the main chimney. COA <br /> #2001-0417 allowed for the repair/replacement-in-kind of the split-rail fence on the property,landscaping,tree trimming. COA <br /> #2003-0929 allowed for the removal and replacement of exterior storm doors and entrance doors. COA#2006-0329-1 allowed <br /> for the re-roofing of portions of the garage,as well as repair of the damages to the main roof. COA#2006-0720A allowed for <br /> the re-roof of the main structure and garage with Tamko Heritage 30-year shingles,as well as the replacement of the static air <br /> vents. <br /> APPLICATION ITEMS: "Overlay metal on shingles,remove stove vent. (Standing-seam horizontal roof by Central States <br /> Manufacturing,Inc.)" <br /> DESCRIPTION OF PROPOSED PROJECT: Applicant seeks a Certificate of Appropriateness for changes on the structure: <br /> 1. Installation of a Horizon-Lock(produced by Central States Manufacturing,Inc.)standing seam,textured painted <br /> steel roof over the existing asphalt shingles, <br /> a. Panels are 16",fabricated in varying lengths to accommodate different roof sections. <br /> b. 13"ridge cap(painted) <br /> 2. Remove the stove vent on the southern wing addition. <br /> The proposed material is a departure from the existing material. Metal was a common roofing material in the 19th century, <br /> although no record of it being used on this structure can be found. The 1932 Assessor Card Indicates that wood shingles were in <br /> use in the early part of the 200 century(this is indicated by`W.SH'on the assessor card). Standing seam metal roofs enjoy a <br /> long lifespan,if installed properly(by comparison,the current shingles are believed to be thirteen years old). <br /> Staff expresses one point of concern:if the new material is laid on top of the existing shingles,the flashing of the new metal <br /> roof will come into conflict with the existing stone window sills,specifically at the front porch and at the rear second story <br /> window(where the window air conditioning unit is located in the supplied photographs). The front porch design(when <br /> originally submitted in 1987)was modified to ensure the second floor window sills would not be impacted by the roof line. <br /> SITE VISIT REPORT:N/A <br /> STANDARDS AND GUIDELINES:Local Landmark"Group B" <br />
