Built in 1874, this Italianate-style house at 29 Langdon Street (at the corner of North Carroll Street) in Madison, Wisconsin, was constructed for the physics professor John E. Davies (portrait photo) and his wife Olive Davies (see the Property Record online). It was renovated later with elements of the Colonial Revival and Mediterranean Revival styles being added.

The house features a buff brick base and stucco cladding, a front and side gable roof with paired brackets on the eaves, Palladian dormers and attic windows, a Palladian former entry door opening with an arched fanlight transom, sidelights, and pilasters, arched window openings with nine-over-nine windows, a front porch with a bonnet terra cotta tile roof, fluted Doric columns, brackets, and a concrete floor, and a one-story bay window on the front facade with an iron railing on the roof.

The house is a contributing structure in the Langdon Street Historic District, listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1986.
