A lovely 1920’s Bungalow style home constructed on the corner of Eden Terrance and Charlotte Avenue. Julian S. Starr, one of Rock Hill’s early 20th century contractors – designers is attributed with this home. His career spanned a period of building from 1902-1931.
Whole neighborhoods of Bungalows developed in the period between 1900 and 1930. Bungalow style homes are square or rectangular in floor plan, usually one or one and one half stories in height with low-pitched overhanging roofs, and often include large front porches with heavy porch columns. The columns may be tapered, square, paired, or set upon stone or brick piers. Bungalows usually have a front facing gable on a front porch, a projecting dormer or at the main roof line. The overhanging eaves usually have exposed roof rafters or decorative braces and stickwork. Bungalows are often of clapboard or wood shingle, but may also be of stone, brick, concrete block or stucco. Courtesy of the Penn. Arch. Field Guide – Website
