Oscar A. Meyer House

Contributing, ca. 1910.
One and one-half story late Queen Anne style house which retains its original form and massing, but has changes to the original door and replacement porch posts and balustrade. Original front door has been filled in, with current door to north. Typical irregular floor plan, frame construction. High hip roof with front gable dormers and stucco walls. One-over-one windows. Large corner lot. House appears by 1922, but may date closer to ca. 1910. Oscar A. and Frances Meyer lived here from 1926 to 1938. Meyer may have been the original owner. He was a manager at Duke Power Company. David M. and Roselyn R. Wells lived here from 1939 to 1940. Wells was a painter. C. Spurgeon and Delpha S. Edmundson lived here in 1943 to 1944 and again from 1948 to at least 1951. The house was vacant for part of the 1940s. Fair to poor condition.
