The original structure consisted of only the front gable, making it a four room dwelling . The rear section of the home was added around the turn of the century. Vance, a cabinet maker, was a man of modest means, which explains the absence of ornate trim found on other area houses of this type. This simple one-and-a-half story frame cottage is three bays wide and has a gable roof with an interesting gable at the rear, forming a T plan. A transom is above the front door.<br> -From Indianapolis Historic Preservation Commission, Lockerbie Square Historic Area Preservation Plan, 1987 |
