Other Commission members present : John Stack and Joy Bear May 11, 1985 The oldest part of this house is a section of its foundation, c . 1780. A house was built on - or moved onto - this foundation around 1860-70, Several Southold people remember this house as a brown shingled, flat-roofed Italianate style house . These people are William Zukas, Hommel Avenue,• Mary onk in, Main Roa ; and Wesley Dickinson, Bayview road . Originally the prese living room of the house was -three bedrooms; the nresent dining room was the living room; and the kitchen was a lean-to. An outhouse stood in the back yard . The property fronts on Goose Neck Bay. Southold Town Landmark Preservation Commission 5/11/1985 .. Cl) M_OONEY-GETOFF HOUSE, page 2 SD 130 ATTIC Rafters in the attic are butted (without a ridgepole ) . They are 13/4" x 5 3/4", rough-sawn (not planed ) and date from 18 0-1850. There are some re-used timbers in the siding. SECOND FLOOR Doors have rather ornate cast-iron hinges with finials, c . 1870. The windows are two-pane sash types , dating from 1910, but with older, 1870's frames and moldings . The owners evidently "modernized"the windows bi saved the moldings . STAIRWAY The balustrade with turned balusters, and the newel post are pine, dating to the mid-1L0's . The stairs are 30" wide (which are narrow for th( period ) and look older. KITCHEN The kitchen windows have two sashes , but no counterweights . The floorboards are 9" wide chestnut, all milled to even width. They were ptobably laid during Herbert Oliver 's ownership, c. 1934 . CELLAR Tne cellar has very old areas, dating back to c. 1780. These include walls with the lower part and foundation of stone, pointed up with soft, o: mortar. A concrete block wall in the new west cellar butresses up an early stone and brick wall. The lower part of the exterior walls are stone, topped with courses o- brick. These walls do not precisely fit the building over them, and adJustments have had to be made - indicating that the house was moved to ti site, rather than having been built onto the foundation. Other indications found in the ceiling, where joists that hold up the first floor upstairs occasionally terminate in a now-unused basement window. A concrete pier in the southwest end of the basement did not seem functional until it became apparent that it was the west wall of the small.. early basement . When the house was moved to this site, c . 1860-70, the basement was enlarged to the south to accommodate it.
