Architect Francis Averkamp designed this Dutch Colonial Revival house, built in 1922-24 for Maude Hennion. Its terra-cotta block walls, covered in whitewashed stucco, rest on a fieldstone foundation, and its gambrel roofs, gabled dormers and splayed window lintels mark the style. A garage sits in a lower north wing. The Landmarks Preservation Commission noted that the facades and roofs seem to have been simplified from the original design.
