Chambers–Robinson House

Chambers–Robinson House (StreetView)
This house was built in 1890 by Judson G. Chambers and sold to Charles and Dora Robinson in 1898. In 1923, the Robinsons' daughter Caroline and her husband Samuel Cooke built a house a block away, and converted the original house to apartments. They sold the new house in 1940, and lived in the original house until their deaths. The Cookes' daughter sold the house in 1962, and it's remained outside the family since. The house was built in Queen Anne style with some Eastlake details. The 2-story frame house has a steeply pitched hipped roof supported by decorative brackets and pierced by several dormers. A porch wraps around the left corner of the house, and features elaborate posts, brackets, and latticework. The entry hall features a grand Eastlake staircase.

The house was listed on the ARLH on 4/14/1992, and on the NRHP on 5/14/1993.
