Ferguson-Smith-Craft House, ca. 1912

Believed to have been built by R.B. McCullough, this Craftsman Style home features typically battered (sloping) piers on the porch. The porch maximized shade in the summer, as do the lovely oaks trees in front. The popularity of this style stemmed from the fact that pattern books and plans were readily available. A former owner remembers being carried onto the front porch in her father's arms to hear the ringing of church bells to signify the end of the First World War.
