Context/Comments
The Cochran-Cassanova House was a wood-frame, five-bay, gable-roofed late Victorian galleried cottage. It had a door opening to the gallery from each of the two front rooms as well as the central main door.

It was individually listed on the National Register on 20 April 1987, as a component of the Ocean Springs Multiple Resource Area, from a nomination prepared by MDAH architectural historian Brian Berggren.

The house was no longer standing by 2009. It was probably demolished after having been damaged by Hurricane Katrina on 29 August 2005.
Brief Description
The Chochran-Cassanova House is a one-story, wood-frame house with a side-gable roof and a full-width undercut gallery. A small gabled wing extends southward from the rear of the house. The entire structure rests upon low brick piers. The three central bays of the symmetrical five-bay facade consist of entrances with transoms. The center door is also flanked by sidelights and is framed by an eared architrave. The outer bays of the facade and the two bays of the end elevations consist of six-over-six double hung sash windows. Six square posts support the gallery roof. The gallery is enclosed by a sawn balustrade and decorated with sawn brackets and pendants.
