<h3>House 2</h3>

<h3>House 10</h3>
<p> </p>Colonial Revival is an important style in Montford, and 138 Cumberland Avenue provides an excellent example. Elements of the Colonial Revival style evident in the house include a gable roof, segmental arches over the doors and windows, Greek pilasters flanking the doorway, and Greek columns supporting the roof of the side porch.
