The charm of the early Southside neighborhood is well expressed in this classic Queen Anne style residence built circa 1900. A pattern book undoubtedly provided plans for its builder, likely Andrew Nelson, a carpenter/contractor whose wife, Louisa Lenora, owned the property at the time of construction. The characteristic cross-gabled roof, return gable ends, beaded clapboard siding, and porch with gracefully turned columns and railings appear today as they did at the turn of the twentieth century.
