Description: Originally a 1 12/ story Cape Cod with wood siding: living room, dining room and kitchen downstairs, 2 bedrooms and 1 full bath upstairs.  Full basement.  Used to be heated with oil.  Probably had a screened porch on the south side next to the living room at first (Routts think that because the basement extends to the south beyond the south wall of the living room).   Now a greatly expanded Cape Cod, 2 stories, vinyl siding, gable roof with dormers.
Story 1: An elderly neighbor told the Routts that P&G once owned the house and that several of their employees lived there for short periods of time but that does not show in the deeds. 
Story 2: Randall Gomien died in Florida December 5, 1981, aged 82.
