003, White farmhouse on Tyden Farm #6

Title

003, White farmhouse on Tyden Farm #6

Description

The farmhouse was built in 1910. It was built like a Cornbelt Cube. It's pyramid roof is modified by the addition of gabled dormers on the south front, and the west and east sides, and by the addition of a large wing off the northweat, rear corners of the cube itself.. This two -story wing, which appears to be original to the house, added both the kitchen downstairs and a bedroom with a balcony upstairs, from which most of the farstead and the fields beyond to the horizon could be surveyed. Emil Tydeh would occupy this bedroom wing during his frequent visits to the farm.
