| Lewis House is one of ten structures that comprise the [[n:northeast_residential|Northeast Residential Area]] of the University of Massachusetts Amherst. It House is a brick neo-Georgian structure of 1940 with a central wood cupola, a slate gambrel roof with central pediments on its northeast and southwest elevations, regularly-spaced hip roof attic dormers, and paired brick interior chimneys at the northwest and southeast ends of the building. The building is 19 bays wide and three bays deep. It has decorative brick quoins at its corners, a brick water table at its basement level, and brick stringcourses. The windows are wood. Because the land slopes downward to the northwest, the central portion and southeast wing of Lewis House are 3½ stories in height, while the northeast wing has an above-grade basement that makes this portion of the building 4½ stories on both its northeast and southwest elevations. Lewis House has a wood dentil cornice at the roofline and within the gable peaks. | Lewis House is one of ten structures that comprise the [[n:northeast_residential|Northeast Residential Area]] of the University of Massachusetts Amherst.
