NWB.536 , 232 Storey Ave, 1775. This two story house with pitched roof and symmetrical five bay facade probably dates from the eighteenth century. The placement of the chimneys indicate that this building may have an earlier core. The front entrance located in the central bay has been altered and presently has the sidelights and pilasters characteristic of the early nineteenth century. The early owners of this house have yet to be documented. The earliest known owner is Helen C. Moseley, owner in 1924. Later the house’s owner was Eunice Smith who sold the property to George Barker in 1941. In 1953 the house was conveyed to Walter Rogers.
