This two-story house, of generally rectangular plan, has a picturesque composition of intersecting hipped and gabled roofs clad in red clay shingle tile. A veneer of dark red variegated brick is highlighted by quoins and an offset, projecting por tico containing an arched entry faced in random ashlar lime stone. Contractor A. C. Luther is recalled to have constructed the residence, probably to the plans of Joseph I. Patterson, architect. The first owner was Maurice Rabinowitz, vice- president and manager of United Auto Supply Company; the house remained in the family until 1973.
