It is a side-gabled Craftsman-style bungalow with wide eaves and a large front porch. The porch is unusual for this style in having curved ends of its terrace. The interior is intact and is "notable for its fine built-ins and for the high quality of the materials used."[2]

History

The house was originally owned by Otto Gretzinger, the manager of a local lumber company, the Central Lumber Company, and his wife, Hilda, a schoolteacher. Otto and Hilda were wed in 1915 and soon after purchased the property where they would build their home, which was completed the following year.[2]

In 2011, the house was added to both the State Register of Historic Places and the National Register of Historic Places.[2][1]

It is located adjacent to the North Broadway Street Historic District, listed on the National Register in 1983, which includes houses at 903, 1915, and 935 North Broadway.[3]

gollark: I vote that we abolish time and thus months and years.
gollark: As a person, I propose that your ignorance of the opinion is ignored.
gollark: No. No groups should randomly be allowed to claim entire years. Months is bad enough, but we have even fewer years available.
gollark: "Mental state" is a very general term.
gollark: I'm not sure what "mental state" is supposed to mean, but arguably that's one of the more reasonable things to discriminate based on, given that that's at least partly controlled by the person in question and maybe includes stuff like "being annoying/trolly".
