Ida- Thank you so much for the identification. I will update it as the King House.
I’m really glad someone has actually put a model name to it. I’ve been trying to figure out for years what type home it was so we can put it back to original.
I am the owner of this house. We purchased this house 20 years ago and the adornments were on it already. We actually have a picture in black and white from the 50s or 60s and they were on the house then.
What a beauty! How fortunate you are to be the steward of such craftsmanship!
Pitts is one of my favorite villages. Wish I had time to restore them all.
A real charmer! It looks as though the Queen Anne adornments may have been added a few years after it was built. Whatever the case, it’s lovely.
I wondered about that, too.
