The Amos Gould House is a single-family home located at 115 West King Street in Owosso, Michigan. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1980. [1]

History

Amos Gould settled in Owosso in 1843. In 1860 he constructed a house in the fashionable Oliver Street district. He may have constructed this kitchen and servants' quarters at the same time, [2] or the structure may have been his original 1843 house. [3] In 1873, Gould completely remodeled this own house by covering it with brick, but left the servants' quarters the same. [2] The building was later moved to this location. [3]

Description

The Amos Gould House is a balloon-framed structure covered with clapboard. It has symmetrical window placement and a hipped roof with a simple roofline, supported with elaborately carved brackets. These were likely added during the 1873 remodeling. [2]
