    Architect Henry Otis Chapman designed this L-shaped Tudor Revival house, built in 1926 for Robert W. Boyd, a construction engineer. It has half-timbered stucco walls over a fieldstone base, a roof of crossing gables and a tall stucco chimney, and sits below the street behind stepped bluestone walks and a historic wrought-iron lamppost. The landmarks report called it remarkably intact.
