Additional Comments
This is a two-story frame cube house with a hip-with-a-deck roof and center gables on each facade. The house has aluminum siding, a rock-faced concrete block foundation, 1/1 aluminum replacement windows and asphalt shingle roofing. It appears to have been built c. 1900, probably for Mathias Wichern, a dairy farmer of German origin. The current owners are McKee and Schellenberger.
