Gambill House – Valley Ridge

Lawton L. Gambill, an attorney with the law firm Allen & Gambill, moved into this Westover Hills residence with his wife Myrtle in 1935. The one and one-half story residence was constructed by contractor A. C. Luther for Byrne & Luther, Inc., developers active in Westover Hills; the architectural design is by Joseph I. Patterson, head designer for Byrne & Luther, Inc.. Clad in variegated brick, the front elevation features a number of intersecting and stepped gables, including a large, half-timbered gable flanking the arched entry which is notable for its stonework. The house appears unaltered, and remained in the family until 1987.
