Residence in Forest Grove

Title

Residence in Forest Grove

Description

This two story house on the northwest corner of 15th Avenue and Elm Street is known as the Barnes House and the Marble House and is in the Queen Anne Victorian style. This house, facing Elm Street, is somewhat narrow in the front but with a large gable on the left facing the front and a third story tower on the right it looks large. There is a roofed window bay on the first floor below the gable. The porch starts at the end of the gable and looks to go around to the right side of the house. The porch has its own roof. There is a small outbuilding on the right. It looks like screens are place on the ground beside windows as if they were being installed or taken down. The sidewalk is wood. The street is not visible in the picture but there is a tall possibly concrete curb. Grass and weeds are growing in front of the curb indicating the street is dirt.
