The home boasts an unusual U-shaped design that combines Spanish Revival and Mission Revival styling, with Palladian windows. The home was built without a precise blueprint but rather a "footprint" on the property which spared the grandiose old oak trees.
The home is located at 806 Rosedale Terrace. It was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1987.[1]
