Property Description
Updated with today's features and amenities, this Queen Anne Victorian home is a fabulous find. Located just blocks from Haynie's Corner Arts District and Evansville riverfront you will love the location and the community. Its rich history tells the story of quality construction, craftsmanship and now top shelf updates. This home was built by Louis Daus, founder of Anchor Industries, and is known as the Louis Daus House. Designed by Evansville Architect F.J. Schlotter, its renovation began in 1981 when John Daus, Jr, grandson, bought it; Randall T. Shepherd, former Chief Justice of the Indiana Supreme Court, became the next owner and continued the renovation. Victorian characteristics are showcased by the turret/bay windows, covered wraparound front porch, high ceilings, tall windows, and remarkable woodwork including a grand foyer staircase. The sun drenched kitchen has been thoughtfully updated in great taste. The walkout basement provides great living space and storage. Tons of additional storage space in the third floor attic. Large yard perfect for relaxing and entertaining. Spacious detached garage. This home is not located in the Historic District allowing owners the ability to make exterior changes as they wish.
