Mosher House - 1147 East Walnut St.
The Mosher House

Built about 1893 on land originally purchased in 1837 by James Dollison, the home has a distinct charm. Of interest are the shingles on the roof, hand carved of wood and rounded as opposed to conventional square tipped shingles. A beautiful cut-glass, leaded window enhances the appearance of the entrance. Inside doorknobs are fluted and made of solid brass. The home has a total of eight rooms, with a breakfast nook the only addition to the original structure. Owners have included Harriet A. Mosher, William W. Woods, Nellie C. Milligan, Mrs. Forest R. Nichols, Mrs. Gentry North, Nellie C. Milligan, Mrs. Forest R. Nichols, Mrs. Gentry North, Mrs. Betty Upchurch, and Dr. and Mrs. James Riley. Architectural style: Late 19th century city residence.

Approved: 1/20/75
