Wright House – Travis

The Wrights House is a one and one-half story wood-framed structure, rectangular in plan, with gabled roof and full recessed porch. A double-gabled dormer dominates the front gable slope. It is clad in narrow siding on the first story, shingled in the gables, with concrete-block base and piers supporting stout porch columns. A gabled porte-cochere projects from the south wall. The house was built c. 1910 for James W. Wright, a well-known dairy farmer, and remained in the family until 1973. In its use of materials and design, the house is representative of its period.
