Albert Brewer House, 132 Lovely Street

Albert Brewer House, c. 1868. Greek Revival style with wood clapboard siding and a pronounced gable end pediment on the front façade and heavy trim moldings and friezes beneath the eves. Its 6 lite over 6 lite double hung windows appear to be original narrow mullioned wood sash flanked by pairs of louvered wood shutters. The open front porch entry is supported with square posts that have simple yet elegant molding, and a standing seam metal roof.

Albert Brewer, carpenter, married Mary Jane Graham, sister to Charles Graham (127 Lovely St). In 1868 Mary Brewer purchased ½ acre from E. D. Preston for $350. In the same year, Mary and Albert Brewer took out a mortgage of $500 for their land “with new dwelling in process”, dating the house to 1868.
