Description
The Israel Beetison House is a residential structure in Ashland Township featuring vertical windows, decorative brackets, and a low-pitched roof. These elements characterize the Italianate style that emerged in Nebraska during the Victorian era.
History
The Dalton Brothers designed and built this house in 1874 during Nebraska's settlement period. Its construction marked a shift toward more sophisticated architecture as economic conditions in the region improved.
