Inscription. Built in the Avondale neighborhood, the Edward and Katharine Jackson House was originally constructed by local lumber manager James Carroll in 1913. The home changed hands several times before the Jacksons purchased the property in 1918. It was kept in the family until 1970. This home is an excellent example of early 20th-century craftsman architecture. The roof features scalloped cresting with outward-facing scroll ends. The symmetrical front facade contains two palladian windows, while multiple ornamental knee brackets rest under the roof eaves. Indoor elements include pine floors, mantel and molding.
