Significance Statement
The property meets the criteria for HCM designation because it embodies the "distinguishing characteristics of an architectural-type specimen, inherently valuable for a study of a period style or method of construction," as an example of Tudor Revival architecture. While not indicated in the HCM designation, this property also meets eligibility criteria for its association with the "notable work of a master builder, designer, or architect," as a work by master architect Gerard R. Colcord. Colcord (1900-1984) was a prolific Southern California architect of Period Revival-style residences.
