This house was built between 1912 and 1914 as the Methodist Episcopal Church South
Parsonage. Subsequent owners included John G. Newton, an engineer at Arizona State
Teachers College; Samuel S. Warner, a Tempe farmer; and H. S. Harelson, who used the house
as a rental property after 1930.
This L-shaped, single-story, painted brick house has a pyramidal roof. The open porch
in the "L" of the house has a frieze and is supported by a single square corner
post. Windows and doors are segmentally arched and individually placed; windows are
double-hung.
In the late 1980s, the house was dismantled and rebuilt at Olde Towne Square, a modern
office complex comprised of five relocated historic homes.
