What Style House?

From Kathy Girardot:

"We bought our home about 20 years ago. I have been told it was built in the early 1900s. It is the second house built on the foundation, the first having been leveled by a tornado the day the owners were moving in. I've always been curious as to the style and haven't seen many like it in our area which is Northern Indiana. The inside is finished with a lot of red oak in the floors and trim. There are French doors between the two main downstairs rooms. We have stairs to the upstairs in both the living room and the kitchen."
