Description

15 Bodwell Street (formerly #9), Sanford, ca 1900. Built before 1889 perhaps for the Breary family which lived there until 1893. Their descendants occupied the house for almost six more decades. Note the bracketed posts, delicate moldings, unusual decorations under the eves, and gabled el. The porch has since been removed and the house covered with asbestos siding. Print from a 4" x 6" glass negative.
