National Register of Historic Places - Wilkinson-Boineau House

Statement of Significance: The Wilkinson-Boineau House is a two-story wood frame residence on high brick piers. The original (ca. 1830) portion of the house was a two-story central-hall single-pile residence with a braced timber frame. Behind the wood lattice-infilled foundation can still be seen the hand-hewn plates and sills, sawn floor joists, and undercut floor boards. A portion of the central hall was removed in the 1930s when a one-story, three-room section enlarged the rear shed rooms of the original house. The house has square-edge weatherboarding and a tall lateral gable roof with a half-moon louvered vent in each gable end, and dentil molding under the eaves on the facade and rear elevation. The original windows were nine over-nine double-hung sash, but were replaced with two-over two double-hung sash in the 1930s or 1940s. Most of the original shutters, a mixture of paneled and louvered, are still in place. The roof is covered in corrugated metal. The facade, or southern elevation is five bays wide with a central entrance. A one-story hip-roofed porch, accessed by high brick steps, spans the breadth of the entire facade. The roof is supported by six brick piers which extend above the porch floor, as bungaloid pedestals, on which sit tapered box columns, all added during the 1930s. A simple unturned balustrade with round rail encircles the porch. The central entrance features a double-leaf door, with each half containing a lower wood panel and a larger upper glazed panel, surmounted by a four-light fixed transom. The wood surround consists of flanking Doric pilasters in support of an entablature containing a lozenge molded frieze, denticulated cornice, and shelf architrave. The eastern and western elevations (gable ends) are identical with two bays over two bays in the original two-story portion of the house and an extended two-bay shed room. The rear, or northern, elevation, is five bays wide with one window in each end room, and a paired window and a door in the central room. Two tall brick chimneys pierce the rear slope of the roof at or near the rear wall of the two-story block. A modern four-by-two bay, ground level enclosure exists under the western two-thirds of the rear shed rooms. A central wooden shed roof porch extends to the rear and is accessed from the east by a slat-balustraded stair. The house originally had a central hall with a double-run open stringer stair. The wall on the east side of the hall was removed in the 1930s and that space was incorporated into the present living room. The stair remains today as a simple reverse flight staircase with an unturned balustrade and square newel. The walls above the wainscoting in the living room are of fir plywood, which replaced the original ca. 1830 plaster. The original pine floor in the hall and the east parlor has been covered. with oak flooring run at a 45° angle to span the unevenness left by removal of the central hall. The other front parlor is still complete, but the original plaster walls have been replaced with sheetrock. Both rooms have simple Greek Revival mantels and paneled wainscoting. The first floor front bedroom features a multi-paneled door with molded pilasters and entablature similar to that of the front entrance. The second floor has one bedroom on either side of the central hall, each with simple Greek Revival mantels, paneled doors with molded and corner block surrounds, and wainscoting like those on the first floor. There is a full attic above the second floor, where evidence of the building’s mortice and tenon joinery can be viewed.
