Krueger House

The Krueger House is a historic residence in Stuart, Florida, built from Florida pine wood and featuring four bedrooms plus a large attic room with handmade trusses. The construction showcases the typical materials and building methods of the era when the property was created.

Albert Rudolph Emil Krueger established the property in 1890s Florida and developed an agricultural operation growing pineapples and oranges. The estate played an important role in the farming development of the region during that era.

The house carries the name Burn Brae, reflecting the Scottish roots of Annie Donaldson Kincaid Speirs, the wife of Albert Krueger. This name shows how European traditions were woven into the story of this property.

The property sits near Krueger Creek, which serves as a landmark that helps orient visitors to its location. The layout of the grounds and surroundings provides clues about how the estate functioned as a working agricultural operation.

The property underwent major restoration work between 1997 and 2002 that brought back its historical appearance. After this careful renewal, it earned recognition on the National Register of Historic Places.
