    Dwight James Baum, a prolific Fieldston architect, designed and built this clapboard Colonial Revival house in 1916 and owned it for many years. He returned in 1923-24 for further work on it. Its curved entry hood on paired columns, leaded fanlight and Palladian window on the side porch remain, and the landmarks report found the house remarkably intact.

    “This Colonial Revival style house was designed and built in 1916 by prolific Fieldston architect Dwight James Baum ... He owned the house for many years.”
