This shingle-sided Craftsman sits on a high lot above Broad Street. It’s an unusual but nice example of the form.

Nancy Coleman Holshouser could most likely answer your questions about this house.
Sistie Hudson here—I have always thought this could possibly be a Sears Roebuck House, as well as the now-gone Craftsman house(Olhman) in the opposite end of Broad Street. Both were built about the same time. A much older house stood on this lot before this was built. It was “rolled” to the opposite corner and restored.
Interesting home Brian. I would classify this an examples of the rarely seen ”Swiss Chalet Craftsman” style LOL!
I agree Ben. It felt Craftsman, so I went with that. Perhaps, Eclectic Craftsman 🙂 with a Swiss Chalet feel…
