Holmes House – Crestwood

This eclectic house successfully combines a number of materials in an asymmetrical composition to project an image of a historic period. Architect Charles Armstrong is responsible for the design. Contractor Morris L. Swartzberg and mason Eugene Sergi constructed the house, built in 1939-40 for Woodrow “Woody” Holmes, an independent oilman. The gabled one- story house is faced in mottled red brick; sandstone highlights the window openings and forms the portico. It is one of the oldest houses in the Crestwood development.
