Has anyone ever seen a foursquare with this deign feature

We recently bought a 1922 foursquare (at least it has much in common with a typical foursquare) in Asheville, NC. It has a design feature that we found rather charming, but that we've never seen before in a foursquare or a bungalow: a tapered (trapezoidal) facade (front and rear). Pictures are attached. Has anyone seen this design before or know anything about the style. Seems vaguely European to us.

It seems to evoke a prairie influence to the four square form. I've never seen that particular feature but seeing different combinations of styles and forms is not unusual. Nice house.

This is one gorgeous home! I agree with Diane that it is of prairie influence.
