DPR 523L (1/95) <br />State of California – The Resources Agency Primary # <br />DEPARTMENT OF PARKS AND RECREATION HRI # <br />CONTINUATION SHEET Trinomial <br />Page 3 of 12 Resource Name or #: 11021 and 11033 Dublin Canyon Road <br />Recorded by Ward Hill Date: April 2018 Continuation Update <br /> <br />P3a. Description, con’t <br />11021 Dublin Canyon Road <br />A driveway leads from the street to a parking area on the west side of the house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road. A modern aluminum <br />frame carport is at the southwest corner of the house. The house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road has an enclosed side yard on the east <br />and a small vegetable garden enclosed by a chain link fence in front of the house. The landscaping adjacent to the two houses <br />includes various shrubs, a lawn, an open grassy area and a variety of small and medium size trees. A redwood tree is adjacent to the <br />rear of the house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road. Thick ivy covers the wall at the base of the recessed porch at 11021 Dublin Canyon <br />Road. <br />The Bungalow Style house at 11021 Dublin Canyon Road is a single-family, single-story house. The house has a moderately pitched <br />cross-gable roof covered with asphalt shingles and patched with rolled roofing paper. The house has exterior stucco walls. The roof <br />has wide eaves with exposed rafters. The front and side (west) gables also have prominent eave brackets. The large projecting front <br />gable covers the entrance porch on the western half of the front façade. Three steps lead up to the raised entrance porch. The <br />prominent wide porch wraps around from the front (north) façade around to the west façade. The five square, evenly spaced porch <br />columns set on a low wall are faced with clinker brick. The windows in the house are primarily wood-sash double-hung or casement. <br />The front façade has a tripartite window (narrow side windows flank a wider center window) left of the entrance door. A stucco covered <br />chimney penetrates the roof porch on the west facade. <br />Inside, the small house has six rooms. The compact square plan with 904 square feet (about 30 by 30 feet) has no interior hallways. <br />The rooms open directly one to another. The front door opens directly into the living room on the west side of the north facade. The <br />living room has a coffered ceiling, wood wainscoting, a built-in break front with leaded glass doors and a fireplace faced with clinker <br />brick (now painted). The doors and windows are framed with plain boards. The kitchen is south of and adjacent to the living room. <br />The eastern half of the interior includes two small bedrooms (with bathroom in between) and a utility room. A kitchen door on the west <br />leads to the side porch. A rear door from the utility room leads to the back yard. <br />The condition of the house appears to be poor and deteriorated. The porch is tilting to the west away from house. The ends of the roof <br />rafters are rotted. The roof has been patched in several locations. The sagging west slope of the roof suggests the building may have <br />significant structural deficiencies. <br />11033 Dublin Canyon Road <br />A gravel driveway east of the house leads to an attached carport at 11033 Dublin Canyon Road. The Ranch House Style house at <br />11033 Dublin Canyon Road is single-family, single-story house with an L-shaped plan. The cross gable roof (covered with asphalt <br />shingles) has plain shallow eaves. The exterior walls are covered with smooth stucco. The windows on the front façade are horizontal <br />aluminum sash sliders. The front (north) façade has a prominent gable on the west with an adjacent recessed entrance porch. The <br />gable has wide eaves with decorative brackets; the wall below the gable has two aluminum frame windows. The front façade has a <br />brick base. One square post supports the porch roof projecting out from the main gable roof. The south façade has a sliding glass rear <br />door. <br />Inside, the house has 1,850 square feet. The four bedrooms are on the west with the living areas - a kitchen, a dining room and a <br />family room – on the east. The interior walls are largely covered wallboard. Part of the family room has natural wood paneling. <br />B10. Significance, con’t <br />The 240 acre parcel was not subdivided until the mid-20th century. Michael Devany also owned a 309 acre parcel east of the town of <br />Dublin. Devany and his wife Mary had six children, two sons and four daughters (Lynch 2007:41). <br />Mary Devany died in 1881 at age 45 and Michael Devany died in 1890 at age 73 (Lynch 2007:41). The Devany’s youngest daughter, <br />Eliza, inherited the 240 acre parcel on Dublin Canyon Road. Eliza married a San Francisco Police Officer, John W. Butterworth, in <br />1891. Eliza and John Butterworth lived in San Francisco on Folsom Street (1900 U.S. Census). The Official Maps of Alameda County <br />of 1900 and 1907 shows “Eliza Butterfield” as the owner of the 240 acre parcel purchased by her father. Given that she and her <br />husband did not live on the property, it is likely they rented it to a tenant farmer, possibly occupied by a farm manager. John Butterfield <br />died 1908, however his wife Eliza lived in San Francisco until 1949 (Lynch 2007:101). Eliza Butterfield apparently sold the 240 acre <br />Dublin property soon after her husband’s death. The 1910 and 1915 Official Map of Alameda County shows J. V. Fernandos as the <br />owner of the 240 acre parcel. According to 1910 United States Census, “Joseph V. Fernandes”, a farmer age 43, lived on the Dublin <br />Pass Road with wife Mary (age 28). The names are often misspelled on the Alameda County Official Maps (which show property <br />ownership). The person listed in the Census is likely the same person shown as the property owner J.V. Fernandos. According to the <br />Census, Joseph Fernandes immigrated from Portugal in 1883 and he had been married 13 years. He is shown as the owner of the <br />property where he and his wife resided. The Alameda County Assessor Records indicate a 1918 construction for the Bungalow Style <br />house (11033 Dublin Canyon Road) extant today on the property, thus its likely Joseph Fernandes built this house. A detached garage <br />originally adjacent to the rear of the house has been removed (Kolb 2018). Historical archives did not indicate clearly how long <br />Fernandes resided on this property. <br />□
