Columbus Few House

House. Contributing, by 1926.

Entry stoop has a front gable roof and square posts. Walls are brick veneer with shingles in the gable ends and dormer. Windows are one-over-one. Heavily wooded lot drops away to the rear. Columbus Few, the postmaster, and wife Bessie lived here from 1939 to at least 1949. Fair to poor condition.
