Raymond Carr House

In Kingman, AZ, about 0.2 miles off the old road, the Raymond Carr House stands as a Colonial Revival home that holds a National Register listing. It was one of the houses reviewed in a 1985 survey of 63 historic places in Kingman, a study that brought many of its neighbors onto the Register too. It fits easily into a Route 66 walking loop through the older residential blocks near downtown.

What is Raymond Carr House?

Colonial Revival homes take their cues from early American houses, with orderly fronts, symmetrical windows and classical details around the door. The style was widely used in American towns in the early twentieth century, and Kingman has several examples.

The record does not say who Raymond Carr was or when the house was built, so it is best appreciated for its design and for its place in a neighborhood where many homes share the same recognition.

Visiting Raymond Carr House: tips

This is a private residence. Look from the street or the public sidewalk only; a few minutes is plenty.

The George R. Kayser House, another Colonial Revival home, is about a tenth of a mile away, as are the J. M. Gates House and the Duff T. Brown House. Walking between them takes only a few minutes and shows off the mix of revival and Craftsman homes on these blocks.
