Errea House, Greek Revival house in Tehachapi, United States.
Errea House is a residential building from the late 1800s featuring columns and strong horizontal lines typical of Greek Revival design. The structure displays construction methods of its era with covered porches and evenly spaced windows across its symmetrical facade.
The building was constructed between 1870 and 1875 in the earlier settlement of Tehichipa before the community relocated. It stands as one of the few surviving structures from this early phase of settlement history in the region.
The Greek Revival style represents a taste that spread across America in the 1800s, blending classical proportions with materials found locally. Visitors can observe on the facade how this design approach reached the California borderlands.
The house sits near Tehachapi Museum and is easily accessible from South Green Street. Visitors can view the architecture from the outside and explore the surrounding area without needing admission.
The building was physically moved from its original location in the older settlement of Tehichipa to its current site around 1900. This relocation during the community's transformation makes it a rare example of structural continuity between two settlement periods.
