Designed by Victorian architect George F. Barber
Built in the early 1890's by town scion William Blair Titman. This home remained in the Titman family for almost hal f a century.
Adapted by a plan published in a catalogue of mail order homes, the Titman house is now one of about a dozen American homes still in good condition that were designed by Victorian architect George F. Barber. It is a fine example of Barber's penchant for softening the angular with touches of roundness, such as his signature "horseshoe" window, in this case inset with a rectangular window and framed by a web like spindle work built into the veranda trim and the unusual hipped turret, which , like the slate roof, is crested with decorative wrought iron.
Once inside you will marvel in the elegant oak paneled two-story foyer which opens into a large parlor and music room graced with an original beautiful carved oak fireplace.

Prior to July 1993, this site was a grassy yard between two lovely older residences. The house design was based on a plan found in a Victorian magazine, with changes made by the owners.
While blending into the neighborhood, as if it had always been there, the house combines Victorian warmth with modern amenities.
