Windows and Doors: The windows and doors appear to be in good condition with no obvious signs of wear or damage. Based on the City-provided building drawings of rehabilitation it appears the windows and doors are a mix of both original and replacements. Replacement windows and doors appear to match the design and materials of the original components. Recent work includes the addition of a sliding barn door and wood finish at the first floor office. Roofing Shingles: The main portion of the roof is finished with asphalt shingles, which appear to be in good condition. The upper dormers have an exterior wall finish of painted wood shingles. From ground level observation the shingles appear to be in fair condition. Gutters: The gutters and downspouts appear to have been replaced during rehabilitation. The gutter profile is a half-round style, which replicates the gutter shapes in use when the Farmhouse was originally built. Both gutters and downspouts appear to be in good condition.
