Property Description

A Bumpable Offer has Been Accepted. Must see J.L. Fairbanks house in the College Hill Historic District! Built in 1926, this Tudor style residence was designed by J. Leo Fairbanks, professor of Art and Architecture at OAC and Chairman of the department from 1923-1946. The home features hallmark Tudor design elements such as steeply pitched gable roofs, decorative half-timbering, and brickwork. The house combines artistic craftsmanship with historical charm, reflecting both the personal style of its designer and the architectural trends of the early 20th century. Beautifully landscaped yard & a distinctive drive-through driveway that adds both functionality and charm to the property leading to the alley in the back. Step into this beautifully maintained home featuring hardwood floors, rich wood trim, and arched doorways that add timeless character. The Fairbanks House was one of the first built in the Hill Crest Addition and was quickly noted for its stylish and elegant appearance. A 1931 article entitled "Corvallis Now Outstanding Among Small Oregon Cities??? included an illustration of the Fairbanks House and praised its architectural qualities. The Fairbanks House is an excellent example of the Tudor Revival style, perhaps one of the most high-style expressions of the Tudor style in the neighborhood. Historic period styles were popular in Oregon from 1910 to 1935, particularly flourishing during the 1920???s.
