Marett-James house, built by H.J. Gignilliat in 1898. The original builder is said to have satisfied a romantic desire to build a house of seven gables. Certainly these gables give the building its interesting and individual character. The upper gables contain semi-circular or wide rectangular windows and are given further interest by alternate rows of dentil shaped shingles. The central gable, virtually a pediment, over the entrance porch is dignified by a sunburst design. Rather unexpectedly the porch roof is supported by Roman Doric columns. Compare with the contemporary Sue Gignilliat house across the street.
