Berst House

Built in 1913, this vernacular design home features a Prairie Mission influence. The first floor is brick while the second is light-colored stucco over brick. A partial third floor covers two sections of the house, extending across the facade and across the rear of the house. The house is two bays wide with two twelve-over-one, double-hung windows per floor. In the past, an enclosed porch extended across the 7th Street façade. The original slate roof has been replaced with asphalt shingles. There is roof bracketing beneath the main roof and former porch roof. The home is classified as a contributing property on the National Register of Historic Places.
