A. E. Burckhardt House, Victorian mansion in Avondale, Cincinnati, United States.
The A.E. Burckhardt House featured 33 rooms across 2.5 stories, including ten bedrooms and seven bathrooms, spanning approximately 8,000 square feet.
Built in 1887 by architect Samuel Hannaford, the mansion served as the residence of Bavarian-born furrier A.E. Burckhardt until financial difficulties led to its sale in 1902.
The property exemplified Late Victorian architecture through its combination of Romanesque and Queen Anne styles, reflecting the design preferences of wealthy 19th-century Cincinnati residents.
Located at 400 Forest Avenue, the structure operated as Queen City Rest Home from 1946 to 2004, providing accommodation for elderly residents.
The mansion, listed in the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, met its end in October 2022 when demolition crews removed the structure.
