Parker–Burnett House

The Parker–Burnett House is a historic house in Somerville, Massachusetts. The Italianate style 2+12-story wood-frame house was built c. 1873–74 by Silas Parker, a builder who sold the completed house to James Burnett, a blacksmith. The house has paired brackets in the eaves and gables, which are matched by brackets along the cornice lines of the two-story projecting bay window. The front porch has more ornate brackets, and is supported by square pillars resting on paneled piers and capped by Ionic tops.[2]
