Description and history
It is a Colonial Revival style house built from adobe, topped by an asphalt-shingled hip roof. It was completed in 1887, making it one of the oldest houses in Kingman. The home was assembled elsewhere in northwest Arizona and transported to its permanent location by railroad.[2]
From 1887 to 1911, Mr. Blakeley was a miner, lawyer, probate judge, on the school board, and the pastor of St. John's Methodist Church. This house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on May 14, 1986.
Renovation
The house was purchased in 2015 by Kingman resident and businessman Bill Barnes who then renovated it and had it re-zoned to commercial for use as an office.[2]
