Situated on a sprawling corner lot overlooking McCauley Park, one of the four circles in Chatham Crescent, this house fulfills the suburban dream of being surrounded by green space. The Craftsman-style design boasts dramatically projecting eaves with angle brackets, and its deceptively compact mass is fronted by an extensive porch that extends westward to form a

porte-cochere in a manner evoking Frank Lloyd Wright’s Prairie Style houses. The porch piers are constructed of rounded field stones, giving the house a strongly vernacular character. The west side and rear parts of the property are densely landscaped in contrast to the open front yard.
