E. F. Hunt House

The E.F. Hunt House in Meridian, Idaho, USA, is a 1½-story Craftsman bungalow designed by Tourtellotte & Hummel and constructed in 1913. The house has an unusual roof design, with a lateral ridgebeam extending beyond left and right gables, hip roofs on either side of a prominent, front facing gable, and a lower hip roof above a cross facade porch. Double notch rafters project from lateral eaves and from cantilevered window bays with shed roofs below the side facing gables. Narrow clapboard siding covers exterior walls. The front porch is supported by square posts with geometric, dropped caps. Tourtellotte & Hummel had used the square post decorations in other Bungalow houses, and a more elaborate example is found on the porch of the William Sidenfaden House (1912) in Boise. The house was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
