Historic Properties of Spokane
Hussey House
Built in 1905 and 1917 respectively, the house and carriage house are excellent examples of the Arts & Crafts tradition expressed in the Craftsman style. The property’s original design and architectural elements reflect a strong horizontal emphasis which is a prominent component of the Craftsman-style. Horizontal feathers of the property include jerkinhead gables, widely overhanging eaves, exposed rafter tails, wide bargeboards with pointed cutout tails, decorative brackets, battered double coursed shingles in combination with narrow-width clapboard siding, a covered front porch, and wide horizontal bands that separate the spaces between the basement, first floor, second floor, and gable peaks.
