Built circa1890
AKA Davis Cottage.
This raised, one-story, frame, hip-roofed cottage has an inset gallery. The architectural structure was detailed to complement the styling of an earlier cottage next door at 753. A white picket fence fronts the property.
Some prior owners or tenants were Irene Davis, D.C. Griffith, Adm. J.K. Vardaman, Fredrick Fritz Swigart, Paul Montjoy, R.C. Bittenbender, Garci Moran, Conrad Kuebel, Dr. Kent Andrews, Wes Jones, Dr. Susannah Smith.
Historic Note: Large kettles were found exposed in the front area after Hurricane Camille washed over the area. These were determined to be tar kettles used in ship building and repairs.
