Sherman Sanford House, 188-190 Lovely St.

On your right.

Sherman Sanford House, c. 1890. Queen Anne Victorian/Colonial Revival style with a combination of elements from each popular type of the period. The asymmetrical façade and the tall narrow windows are emblematic of the Victorian and the classic pairs of entasis Doric columns, Palladian patterned third story windows and half round attic awning window are Georgian, Federal or Colonial Revival traits. This was the first two family home on Lovely St.

In 1861 Edmund and Sherman Sanford purchased 17 acres from George W. Payne for $500. Edmund quit-claimed his title to his brother in 1864. Sherman Sanford built the two-family Queen Anne in the 1890's.
