Contributing

Distinctive 2-story end-gable Craftsman Bungalow entirely covered with wood shingles; broad shed-roof porch carried by paired Tuscan pillars raised on brick pedestals; between 1923 and 1931 the porch was extended to wrap around the south, sheltered by a broad gable roof that repeats the same truss ornament of the house; like neighbor #330, house was built by contractor Joseph P. Kramer, Sr. with lumber and scaffolding left from his construction of the Elizabeth City Methodist Church in 1919-1922; Halcott G. Heyward, an insurance adjuster, resided here in the mid 1930s.
