Changes

The look of the house is reminiscent of Gothic revival architecture, propagated in that time by Andrew Jackson Downing, who Sloane was probably exposed to during his time in Washington D.C. It is made out of brick, with white shutters and trim. The woodwork left from the original house is hand-carved, the designs for the fence and columns inspired by 19^th century china patterns. Columns frame the double doorway that matches the portico. The house was renovated for modern use and divided into apartments. A carriage house and barn were taken down to make way for another wood-frame addition of apartments on the back. From the late 1980s through 2010 the house fell into disrepair for a number of years. When the property was bought by Forest and Georgia Muir in 2011 the back wood-frame addition was torn down, and the main house renovated, so the building could be used for office space.
