At its Oct. 9 meeting the Bexley Architectural Review Board approved a certificate of appropriateness for an addition, a west-side porch and a front-porch renovation at 353 South Parkview, subject to review of final details by the city’s residential design consultant.
Why it matters: The property sits on a double lot in a residential corridor where similar bungalow/CRAFTSMAN-style additions have become part of the street character. Board members said the project’s massing and details were generally compatible with the neighborhood.
Board members praised the applicant’s 3-D views and the decision to set the addition back so that it reads as subservient to the main house. Several members requested attention to the connection between the new stair volume and the existing chimney massing and to certain construction details, but voted to approve the application with the consultant’s final sign-off on those items.
Votes and conditions: The board’s motion granted a certificate of appropriateness with final design changes subject to approval by the residential design consultant. Vote: unanimous in favor.
Implementation notes: The ARB recorded the approval with the condition that final construction details and any material substitutions be coordinated with the design consultant before issuance of a building permit.
