The residence at 5069 Jacksonville Road (previously 612 Jacksonville Road) is
situated on the northwest corner of a junction of Jacksonville Road and a private lane that
connects Jacksonville Road with the Jacksonville Community Church property. The
house is set back from the road and the main facade fronts the private lane. It retains the
form, massing, and some architectural details of the Greek Revival style, but the original
clapboard was been sided with aluminum/vinyl.
The two-story residence has a moderately pitched roof with a main (south) side -
gable fagade. A wide cornice is situated under the roof eaves, terminating with returns on
the east and west facades. The first -story window sash have been replaced with vinyl sash
with 1/1 light configurations. Second -floor windows largely retain their historic double -
hung wood sash and 6/6 light configuration. Projecting pedimented entry porches,
supported by wooden posts, are centered on the west and south facades. These may have
been added in latter decades of the 19th century.
A brick chimney is centered on the west fagade, and a one-story addition with
one -car garage door (20th century) is also attached to the west fagade. The house is clad
with vinyl. The foundation is stone and the roof is sheathed with asphalt shingles.
Narrative Description of Significance
5069 Jacksonville Road was constructed as the parsonage for the Jacksonville
Methodist -Episcopal Church, now known as the Jacksonville Community Church. The
exact date of construction is unknown, but construction likely occurred in the 1840s. In
1843, Reverend S.W. Alden became the first resident preacher of the parish, and may
have been the first resident. The church was responsible for its construction, and retained
ownership of the building until 1979. It housed the church's minister from its
construction to approximately 1969. From between about 1969 and 1979, the church
rented it out. In 1979, the property was sold to Diane Hillman.
