If you would like to own a home with lots of history than this is the home for you. This home was listed on the National Historic Register of Historical Places in 1991. The property is significant as the best surviving example of the early Danish immigrant dwellings built by Jens Uriah Hansen, the first danish immigrant to settle in Audubon County. Of all the documented buildings that this man built, this home, known as the "Bush House", is the only one to retain such a high degree of structural integrity and reflects Hansen's carpentry skills. Built in 1873, this two story frame structure rests on a brick foundation. It has an L-shaped ground plan with intersecting gable roofs along with a second story open porch on the east facade with distinctive lattice-work rail. There is plenty of room with 3 bedrooms and 1 1/2 baths. This would be a great family home or even a beautiful bed and breakfast. Here's a great opportunity to restore this home back to it's original beauty. Home is being sold "As Is".
