Sargent House – Jennings

Constructed c. 1908, this house had two owners before being purchased by William L. Sargent c. 1911. Sargent was an immigration agent with the Texas & Pacific Railroad. The house remained in the family until 1945. It is noteworthy for its front porch; shingled elliptical arches spring from boxed paneled posts, adorned with exaggerated keystones. A carport has been added to the north elevation and the house is now covered with vinyl siding, obscuring the decorative details noted above.
