Description
By the 1880s, Archibald F. Thompson, whose parents were among the first settlers of Bartholomew County, had acquired over 3,000 acres of land in the southern section of the county and was one of the wealthiest farmers in the area. Mr. Thompson built four fine homes for his four daughters, and one of these is this 1888 Queen Anne style home built for Josephine Thompson; another is the nearby Elnora (Thompson) Daugherty Farm, listed in the National Register of Historic Places. This property includes the home and attached garage, 3.95 acres with a large fenced area + a separate field for gardening, horses, or other projects, an inground pool with an automatic cover, a pool house with a huge covered patio/shelter house, a detached garage/small barn, a wood furnace that could be used to help heat the house and pool, and a private well (in addition to city water) with hydrants in the field. A complete list of features and updates (like the brand-new gourmet kitchen) is attached. The third floor could be finished to create additional living space. The main floor dining room was once a private bedroom; a full bath is also on the main floor. Upstairs are four additional bedroom spaces: 2 guest or children's rooms with a Jack and Jill bathroom; a master suite; and a bonus room/additional bedroom with its own exit to the garage.
