Beautiful Quincy Homes Echo Seattle Plan in Quincy

Beautiful Quincy Homes in Quincy reflect the Seattle plan popular on the Oregon coast. John P. Sliney’s brick house at 1424 Hampshire Street, designed by Thomas E. Thompson after California and Oregon trips, features a 12 by 33 foot brick walled porch, stucco columns, pergolas, and an overhanging roof with window boxes. A reception hall leads to a living room, with a mirrored closet den, buttressed dining and kitchen separation, and a second floor with a clever bedchamber and sleeping porch arrangement.
