Niels Petersen House, Queen Anne style residence in Tempe, United States.

The brick house features a combination of Victorian architectural elements with ornate details, wraparound porch, and decorative exterior patterns.

Built in 1892 by Danish immigrant Niels Petersen, the house represents the early development period of the Salt River Valley agricultural community.

The residence demonstrates the architectural preferences of successful farmers in late 19th century Arizona through its grand scale and formal design.

Located at Southern Avenue and Priest Street intersection, the house occupies 2.9 acres of land with public viewing opportunities.

The structure stands as the oldest Queen Anne style brick residence in the Salt River Valley, designed by architect James M. Creighton.
