CORRECTIONS: According to newspaper accounts, the house was actually built in starting in April 1922 for Alvin H. Wineman who owned a small collection of Department stores. The Wineman family moved in on 8/31/1922. He only owned it for three years before, selling it in August of 1925 to William C. Craddock. In 1937 Craddock exchanged the house with A.E. Liddle next door. So the house is actually the Alvin H. Wineman House, not the William C. Craddock House as listed in the 1999 survey. The house was also noted to be a Swiss Chalet style, not a “Provincial style.”
In early-20th-century California, architectural styles were often eclectic, and bungalow/Craftsman houses could incorporate elements derived from other traditions, including chalet influences. (National Park Service)
