Home’s History

This home, built in 1836, stands out with its French Second Empire architecture and a rich historical backdrop.

It was constructed in an era when separate kitchen entrances and servant quarters above the kitchen were common.

Over the decades, it has retained its historical charm while witnessing the evolution of the surrounding landscape.

Home’s Surrounding

The house serves as a living testament to the craftsmanship and architectural sensibilities of the mid-19th century, nestled within a region known for its scenic, narrow roads lined with stone walls and tree canopies.

Next door stands the 1892 Howard Gleason House, an architect-designed Queen Anne dwelling constructed on land subdivided from the earlier Gleason property.

Today, the home merges historical elegance with modern conveniences, maintaining its architectural integrity.

The property spans a generous expanse that resonates with the rural character of its surroundings, where farms, orchards, and historic dwellings enrich the view.

Located near Lake Boon and adjacent to other historical properties, it invites residents and visitors to appreciate the rich tapestry of history woven into its structure.

The house not only serves as a residence but also stands as a beacon of community pride and historical significance.
