Description

Elcho is a building dating from around 1845. It has a south-facing front that is two stories high and features three windows, along with dormerheads. The design is asymmetrical, highlighted by a slightly advanced gable that includes a two-light window. The exterior is harled with margins, and there are finials at the peaks of the gables.
