Finch-Fleischer House, 410 Monroe St Monterey, Monterey County, CA
The Finch-Fleischer House was built in 1870 by James William Finch, as a home for his mother. At her death in 1881, James Finch and his bride, Ellen Louise O`Neill Finch, moved into the house; their daughter, Alma (born 1884), now the widowed Mrs. Otto Fleischer, is the present owner and partial occupant. One wing and the upstairs are rented. Stylistically the house represents a type fairly common in 19th century California, combining modified classicizing elements with touches of the Victorian Gothic, and Italianate windows and doors. Its prim but elegant cottage character is echoed in numerous Northern California Mother Lode towns. The house is of wood with a shingle roof. Interiors are in part original, although practical modifications have been made to suit present uses. The right wing and portions at the back were added in 1881 and later.
