Charles E. Nelson House, Victorian house in Dufur, United States
The Charles E. Nelson House stood as a two-story Queen Anne Victorian structure with detailed woodwork, four bedrooms, a parlor, dining room, and kitchen.
Built in the late 1800s, this farmhouse remained a central part of Dufur's landscape until its destruction by the Substation Fire in mid-2018.
The residence sparked significant interest among photographers and history enthusiasts, leading to the creation of online communities dedicated to documenting Oregon's historical structures.
The house's location at 45°32′31″N latitude and 121°01′27″W longitude placed it among the wheat fields near two black locust trees.
Ellen Simmons, niece of the original owners, maintained detailed accounts of family life in the house since 1927, including traditional activities like butter churning.
