Other: rear addition- demo rear porch- Phase I: Existing heavily altered rear porch to be removed. Reconfigured and slightly larger rear sun porch addition to be constructed. The ceiling is wood beaded board, which will be salvaged and reused for the reconfigured sun porch. Existing corner board at joint between addition and existing house will be retained to demarcate new from old. Corner details, frieze, soffit, casing dimensions, and siding exposure will match existing, using wood lap siding. Small inset porch with protective cover for new rear door will be constructed, using simplified classical detailing; wood tongue and groove porch flooring. Wood French doors and casement windows with transoms to be installed.
- Phase 2: Addition of a dormer to the rear slope of the existing roof, stepped down from the main peak in two gables. Roof pitch over the sun room in this phase will match the pitch of the main roof. A skylight may be installed in the new roof area above the two center windows. The existing wood vent in the west gable (not believed to be original) will be replaced with a window sash (believed to be the original use for this frame), using the original casing. A skylight will be added to the east sloping roof, behind the existing chimney.
