Morris and Ida Irvin Spec House #2

Historic Landmark No. 1112
Morris and Ida Irvin Spec House #2

Historic Landmark No. 1112

1921 Craftsman Bungalow

Builder: Morris B. Irvin

Community Mission Hills

Designated July 25, 2013



This house is an excellent example of Master Builder Morris Irvin's
unique expression of Craftsman architectural style with Neoclassical
architectural elements. Master Builder Irvin combined two distinctive
design elements by (A) expanding traditionally thin Roman Tuscan
Order porch columns into wide "elephantine" columns, and (B) morphing
and expanding a simple eyebrow attic/dormer roof element into a
unique and distinctive sloping "humped" semicircular partial width
porch roof structure that covers the elephantine columns.
