Property History
Since it was built in 1843 by Lucien Scribner, this house has been owned by only five families. Most prominent of them was the Pirsch family, who manufactured fire engines and equipment in Kenosha for nearly 100 years. The property is in Kenosha’s Library Park Historic District, which is listed on the National Register of Historic Places (Ref. # 88002657), and the house itself is listed on the Wisconsin Architecture & History Inventory (record # 9501).
 
Property Description

Perennial gardens surround this carefully maintained classic Greek Revival home built in 1843. Facing Kenosha’s Library Park, and the historic Simmons library designed by Daniel J. Burnham, the house is just minutes away from Lake Michigan and the marina, and only 12 minutes' walk to the Metra train station with service to Chicago.

The first floor is light, airy, and elegant, with an open floor-plan and 9' ceilings. The house, approximately 2400 square feet, has four bedrooms and a den, two baths, living room, dining room, sun porch/Florida room and kitchen. The convenient basement garage will hold two cars parked one behind the other.  Although it is seldom needed near the Lake, there is central air.

Much of the house’s infrastructure has been updated within the last ten years, including installation of a new energy-efficient gas furnace, an on-demand water heater, rewired 200-amp electrical system, new windows (2nd floor), new storm windows all around and a new 30-year roof. Zoning would permit use as an owner-occupied Bed & Breakfast.
