The Barrett-Faison home is an English Cottage built in 1944 for the Barrett Family. Mr. Barrett, who worked as a Sealtest milkman and served Jackson Street on his route, is fondly remembered by some for throwing ice from his truck to children who chased him down the street on hot summer days. The Barrett family lived in this home for many years followed by other owners including Mark and Tanya Clark and Wondal Perry.

The Clarks renovated the kitchen and baths and, in addition to creating a middle bedroom upstairs from attic space, they also turned the side, screened-in porch into a sun room featuring beautiful pickled wood and slate floors. Over the years the Clarks added garden windows and a skylight. Outside they built a three-car garage in a style that complements the era of the house, a wrought iron fence and a pergola that is now covered in a flowing trumpet vine.

Wondal Perry further renovated the house, painting the kitchen cabinets a distressed black and adding a marble kitchen floor. Her lovely cosmetic touches, including glass blocks in the downstairs bath window, can be seen throughout the house.

The Faisons are grateful to be at home in this English Cottage, the perfect place for their family Christmas!
