As you walk south of Princess Avenue, notice that the house lots and the houses are larger. This house at 231 is similar in form and layout to the houses north of Princess Avenue. What sets this one apart from the previous group is the brick veneer, the mock Tudor detailing on the front gable, and the leaded windows. The larger lot size makes the house appear smaller than it is. All of these features suggest that the original owner was more prosperous, from an economic standpoint, than were his neighbors just one block to the north.
