Short answer
Brookwood Hills was built in phases: the first between 1922 and 1924, an extension from 1924 to 1933, a third section platted in 1938 and a fourth in 1961. Its revival and Craftsman houses mix brick, clapboard and stone, so a job often combines wood siding and trim with masonry, and rooms in the older sections may still have plaster walls.
Homes in Brookwood Hills
Four sections built between 1922 and 1961
Benjamin F. Burdett and E. F. Chambless bought about fifty acres here in 1912. The Burdett family then partnered with George Washington Collier Jr. on the first phase, and the Brookwood Hills Extension followed through 1933. A third section was platted in 1938 and a fourth developed in 1961, so the age of the house, and the paint history on it, changes from one section to the next.
The city's district record lists English Vernacular Revival, Colonial Revival, Neoclassical Revival and Craftsman bungalow designs, built in brick, clapboard and stone, some under terra cotta tile or slate roofs. Architects included Neel Reid and Burge and Stevens. On these houses the clapboard and wood trim are where paint fails first, at the bottom courses, the window sills and the porch floors.
Tile and slate roofs change how eaves get painted. Ladders go against the walls rather than onto the roof, and fascia and gutters are prepped from below. Clear Creek forms the east edge, and the houses closest to it are the ones to check for mildew before any scraping starts.
