History
[edit | edit source]
The Krough House is a one-story, wood-frame, single-family residence built in a Queen Anne style. It has redwood siding with a pitch gable roof covered with composition shingles. A small window appears just above two bay windows located at the front of the house. A staircase leads to a redwood paneled front door and porch. The rear of the house has a sun porch and rear entrance. The house has a small cellar with an entrance outside. In the 1890s, Central Avenue was a street of many Queen Anne houses. Today, the Krough House is one of only four of the houses remaining.[2][3]
The Krough House has had several owners; a major restoration of the house and landscaping took place in 1979.[2][4]
The house is named for the Krough family who were immigrants from Slesvig, Germany[5][2] who built the Krough House on 146 Central Avenue.[6]
