Additions; Deck; Porch- Enclosure of non-historic screened-in porch on the rear elevation to create additional interior space. The rear addition will maintain the existing hipped roofline and brick foundation piers. The foundation will be infilled with new wood slat panels between the existing brick foundation piers.
- The screened-in porch will be enclosed with a new wood lap-sided knee wall with single-light wood casement windows above. A centrally-located wood patio door will access the new deck. The eave overhangs and soffits will be maintained, primed, and painted, and new gutters will be installed to match new gutters on the main house.
- A new deck, measuring 13'-8" deep by 20'-1" wide, will extend from the new addition. The deck will feature a foundation clad in wood slat panels, pressure-treated wood flooring, and a railing of pressure treated wood posts and tops with horizontal cable railings.
- Scope of work also includes the removal of a satellite dish and the addition of a small metal chimney for a new interior fireplace.

Applicable Guidelines
Fourth and Gill Design Guidelines, adopted by the Knoxville City Council on April 20, 1999 and June 29, 1999.
See Guidelines- New Additions
- 1. Locate attached exterior additions at the rear or on an inconspicuous side of a historic building, limiting the size and scale in relationship to the historic building. Proportion is very important.
- 2. Design new additions in a manner that makes clear what is historic and what is new.
- 3. Consider the attached exterior addition both in terms of the new use and the appearance of other buildings in the historic district. Design for the new work may be contemporary or may reference design motifs from the historic buildings. In either case, it should always be clearly differentiated from the historic building and be compatible in terms of mass, materials, size, texture, scale, relationship of solids to voids, and color.
- 4. Place additions, such as balconies or solar greenhouses, on non-character-defining elevations, and limit the size and scale in relationship to the historic building.
- 5. Rather than expanding the size of a historic building by constructing a new addition, try to alter interior spaces that do not define the character of the building to accommodate the new space needs.
- 7. New work should not appear to be as old as the historic building. Do not duplicate the exact form, material, style, and detailing of the historic building in the new addition.
- 8. New additions should not cause a lessening or loss of historic character, including the historic building's design, materials, workmanship, location, or setting.
