John Scherer purchased the property in 1847 and lived here until 1894. The house is unusual in that it is a two-storied antebellum brick structure with early stucco being scored to resemble ashlar masonry. The four bay front with doors in the central two bays, was later to become a standard feature for local vernacular house types. The interior end chimneys also add to its significance. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places.
