Durham House – Freeway

This one-story wood-framed house has a hipped roof, forward-projecting gabled wing, and hipped porch set at the juncture. Porch posts have jigsawn brackets. Double-hung windows have simple wood cornices. Jeremiah Deems, a bartender, is listed as residing at this address in the 1899-1900 through the 1907-08 city directories, as a renter. The house changed hands several times prior to World War II, apparently remaining a rental property. The Durham family has owned and resided in the house since 1949. It is an intact example of a recurring type.
