1825 Putnam Avenue has a historic under-stoop railing below a tan swagged cornice
The pale yellow brick front sits on an amber base, five bays wide at the ground and four above, with arched amber lintels and a carved limestone cornice over the first floor. Beneath the stoop, the basement entry has a wood-and-glass door and a historic railing, and the basement windows are wood with screens or grilles. The LPC lists aluminum replacement windows, a newer door with transom and a brick and cast-stone stoop among the changes.
