Exterior rehabilitation of existing accessory structure. Overall project includes window replacement, revision of window and door placement, and addition of a deck.

South elevation: the applicant will remove an existing door and replace with a window to match existing window on right side of elevation.

East elevation: remove existing window and installation of a sliding glass door flanked by two fixed windows of the same size. The size of the door/window combination measures 12' wide by 6'-8" tall.

New deck: proposed new deck along the east elevation, with a section wrapping around the south elevation. The deck will feature Trex composite decking (matching the deck on the primary house) and a vertical aluminum railing with thin pickets and larger square posts. The size of the deck is not specified.

Window replacement: applicant proposes replacement in-kind of 6/6, double-hung wood windows on dormer levels. Applicant proposes the re-installation of new 6/6 double-hung wood windows (specifications not included).

B. Windows
1. Original windows shall be reused if possible. It will be much less expensive and much better historically to retain the original windows, and it is inappropriate to replace them with new windows that differ in size, material or pane division.
2. If replacement windows are necessary, they shall be the same overall size as the originals, with the same pane division and the same muntin depth, width and profile. They shall be the same materials as the original windows, which were generally wood.
3. True divided lights shall be used in replacement window sashes with more than one pane.
4. Tinted or reflective glass may not be used on primary or other important elevations.
5. It can be appropriate to design and install additional windows on the rear or another secondary elevation. The design must be compatible with the overall design of the building.
8. Reuse existing, serviceable window hardware.

C. Porches
2. Design elements to be incorporated in any new porch design must include tongue and groove wood floors, beadboard ceilings, wood posts and/or columns and sawn and turned wood trim when appropriate. If balustrades are required, they must be designed with spindles set into the top and bottom rails.

E. Wood Wall Coverings
1. Synthetic siding is inappropriate and is not allowed either as replacement siding on existing buildings or new siding in new construction.
3. Replacement siding must duplicate the original. Trim and patterned shingles that must be replaced must also duplicate the original material.
4. New construction must incorporate corner and trim boards and appropriate door and window trim to be compatible with adjacent historic buildings.
5. Wooden features shall be repaired by patching, piecing-in, or otherwise reinforcing

M. Auxiliary or Outbuildings
1. The design of outbuildings such as garages shall acknowledge and suggest the function of original outbuildings that would have been located in the neighborhood.
2. The design of features like garage doors that face the street shall mimic carriage house doors from an era consistent with the primary building on the lot.
3. Garages shall be located to the rear of the primary building on the lot.
4. Materials used in constructing outbuildings or accessory buildings may only use materials and design characteristics selected from the following list: wood lap siding with a four inch lap or board and batten; a 12/12 roof pitch; overhanging eaves; exposed rafter tails; wood windows; masonry but not exposed concrete block or split-face block; garage doors appearing to be carriage doors or plank doors with x-bracing or perimeter reinforcing timbers.
