Year Built: ca 1941 Southern Colonial Revival Designated Historic Landmark in 2010 • Southern Colonial Revival built circa 1941, 2-story rectangular plan side gabled frame home with 1-story additions at either end. • Designated Historic Landmark in 2010 as an example of it style and for its association with Olin Culberson, a long-tome Texas Railroad Commissioner who championed the rights of independent oil and gas producers and attracted business to Texas by restricting the export of natural gar and incentivizing businesses to locate near gas wellheads. • Proposed work will maintain and restore character defining features including the symmetrical front façade that features a full-width porch and central entry with leaded glass sidelites. • The covered patio addition to the rear façade will complement the historic architecture and create cohesion. It was designed to be compatible with the massing, size, scale of the existing rear façade. • The New Pool Cabana replaces an existing cabana/storage structure, complementing the existing architecture, but departing in material use to distinguish it as new construction. It is located to the rear of the site, in the backyard, limiting its impact to the historic integrity of the property.
