Prominent contractor Charles Doenges built this Bungalow-style dwelling in 1922 during a housing shortage related to construction of Thompson Falls’ hydroelectric dam. It was one of several rental properties he built and maintained at that time. The first occupant was Irving E. Keith, bookkeeper for the Thompson Falls Mercantile, who had purchased the home from Doenges in 1913 and remained here until 1922. In Thompson Falls, Doenges did much to promote the Bungalow style, a descendant of the Queen Anne cottage with Craftsman elements, adding at least seventeen homes to the town’s streetscapes between 1905 and 1913. Five of these were nearly identical pattern-book Bungalows, though each had its own personality. This house shows characteristic features including a full-width porch with battered sloping columns and solid railing, narrow lap siding, and a hipped roof with exposed rafter ends. Reflecting Doenges’ craftsmanship and elegance, it also has multi-paned windows, an east-side window seat whose four windows have thirteen panes each, and a stained-glass window showing the inverted image of two candles, three bells, and a ribbon; the same window appears on a near twin house, but there the motif is not inverted.
