Rafael Acevedo House
The Rafael Acevedo House (Spanish: Casa Rafael Acevedo), also called the Mirella Acevedo Sanes House (Casa Mirella Acevedo Sanes), is a historic residence located in the town of Isabel Segunda, the largest settlement in the Puerto Rican island-municipality of Vieques.[1] It was designed and built in 1900 by Pedro Peterson, a local engineer and master builder. The residence was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1994 for being the best-preserved hipped-gable house in Vieques and for being a superb example of the vernacular trends that represent the result of different architectural imports from the British and French West Indies into the Spanish Caribbean.[2]
