The following is from the Historic Buildings Inventory as revised in 1984:
Of Classical Revival derivation, this handsome, substantial house projects something of its original dignity despite insensitive resurfacing. The landscaping, which is profuse and mature, contributes significantly to the evocative power of the structure.
One of the early houses of the neighborhood; a good example of the power of forthright design. From the beginning to the present, it has been the residence of Dr. Arthur W. and Esther Meyer and their descendants.
Note: The owners in 2000 were Timothy and Anne Meyer. They were given a PAST Preservation Award in 2000 for their remodel/restoration that included removal of the composition siding.
