729 is a brown-red brick with wood shingled roof. This very "country" English style house is one of a kind. There are long vertical leaded glass windows over the entrance. The massive chimney with its chimney pots and awnings over the door and porch help to give this impressive corner house a very comfortable air. Raybourn Smizer built this house.
