About 505 Houston St

Own your own piece of history. This "pioneer house" originally built in 1847 has so much charm and original architecture and elements! The original Bippert-Kueck house was constructed out of lime plastered walls and in 1869 2 rooms were added along with a long back hallway. In 1990 the home was purchased and an addition added to include a second bedroom and bathroom, a modern kitchen and another large living space. With over 3700 square feet this home is set up for entertaining! Situated on a double lot, this .63 acre corner lot historic property is a jewel! With room to add a barn from the adjoining lot to double as garage space and additional living space - the possibilities are endless.
