    The firm of Polhemus & Coffin designed this two-and-a-half-story frame house, begun in 1930 and completed in 1931 for Dr. David C. Bull. It has segmental dormers, large brick chimneys, slate gable roofs, denticulated cornices and a front doorway with fluted pilasters under a segmental pediment. Its wood frame has since been covered in aluminum or vinyl siding.
