*Book of HistoricStructures of Mt. Sterling by Marla Blair states the follow about our home: 406 SW Cross, The front door of this home is not just an entry, but allows a glimpse of the neighborhood through the wide sidelights. A low-pitched hipped roof is extended by a wide overhang which is repeated at the porch level. A wide cornice edges the full-length wrap-around porch, supported by square half-columns set on the stonecapped brick wall. A porte-cochere is a prominent feature. The expansive porch, large projected windows topped by complimentary panes, and irregular and nonlinear window placement suggest Queen Anne (1880-1910) design that are not afraid to be versatile.
