Julius Boesel House - New Bremen, Ohio














The Julius Boesel House is a historic house near the village of New Bremen in the northwestern part of Ohio. Said to be designed by J.A. Chapin of Lima, the design of the house is based heavily on Design No. 53 from George Franklin Barber's Cottage Souvenir #2. The house was built for Julius Boesel, son of State Senator and State Representative, Charles Boesel.  Julius and his family moved into the house in late October 1895. After being extensively modified in the third quarter of the twentieth century, the house was purchased in 1976 by Donald and Jacqui Kuck, who began a long-term restoration program. Included in their program was the removal of intrusive elements such as lowered ceilings and carpets on the walls. The Kucks were able to restore the house to the point that it qualified for addition to the National Register of Historic Places on March 30, 1978. Architectural Style-Queen Anne.
