Nightingale-Hughes-Brown House, ca. 1896
Built for N.H. Nightingale, possibly as early as 1875, and retained in the Nightingale family until 1951, this somewhat restrainedexample of the Stick style, possesses a decorative truss at the apex of the gable, a typical indicator of the style. Patterns of horizontal stickwork provide balance to the otherwise vertical lines of the structure. Interesting interior features include cast-iron mantels and a walnut stairwell. It is one of the few homes retaining the original detached kitchen, now seen as an extension along the back of the house.
