Thomas A. Beach House, Italianate house in Fairbury, Illinois.
The Thomas A. Beach House features triple-thick brick walls, a central tower, double bracketed eaves, and tall slender windows across its two-story structure.
Built in 1872 with additions in 1886 and 1900, the residence remained in the Beach family until 1981 and gained National Register status in 1983.
The house reflects the architectural preferences of successful 19th-century business owners, incorporating the popular Italianate style in a residential setting.
The building maintains its original design elements, with only a garage addition from 1951 modifying the initial construction plan of the property.
The structure incorporates innovative insulation techniques through air spaces between its triple-layered brick walls, demonstrating advanced construction methods.
