Dan Bock purchased the historic John Berry House to renovate and expand it to serve as
a rental property and for his family's use. The Queen Anne style house is an important
example of the style in the Grapevine Historic Township. The plans were developed for
the property by architect Russell Moran following the Design Guidelines established for
the John Berry house. The existing garage is not original to the property. It has been
enclosed as living quarters and is in poor condition. Its foundation is failed and its floor
slab is cracked and would need to be replaced.
The first-floor addition is located to the rear of the house and includes a new mudroom,
utility room and covered patio. The second-floor addition includes adding a new gable on
the rear elevation of the house and a new dormer to the south side of the house, to allow

square feet, with the 995 square foot garage totals 4,038 square feet, which is within the
Preservation Ordinance maximum allowed of 4,100 square feet. Building height is 30'.
