Marker Text: Located in Tarrytown, this mission revival style house features limestone quarries from a nearby source and red, Spanish-style clay roof tiles. Built for James Martin Walsh (1882 - 1944), third son of local lime manufacturer and Irish immigrant William J. Walsh, and James' wife Leanna (Brunner) Walsh (1881- 1958), the house possesses several defining characteristics, including the curved gable parapet, low pitched tile roofs, shaded porch with corbel arch entry and multi-light windows. James Walsh carried on the family business at Austin White Lime Company and assisted in the development of the Austin area. (2016)
