Step back in time with this one-of-a-kind Queen Anne-style residence, registered with the Wisconsin Historical Society as the Jacob Ruby House.

The home features two half baths, with space and potential to restore original bathtubs. Two of the spacious bedrooms include sinks, and the attic is accessible through one of the upper rooms.
