Historic Third Ward Landmark on Rare .44 Acre Lot.
Built in 1887 by Otto Demmler, this designated historic landmark offers a rare opportunity to own one of Eau Claire’s truly distinctive homes.
Situated in the sought-after Third Ward on an uncommon .44-acre lot, this property combines architectural character, space, and legacy in a way that is rarely available.
This Classic Revival residence blends Queen Anne charm with Colonial Revival detail, featuring two-story clapboard siding, a welcoming front veranda with a triangular pediment, and newly replaced Doric porch columns that enhance its timeless presence.
Inside, the home offers 5 bedrooms and 1.5 baths with a layout that provides flexibility for modern living while preserving its historic character.
The property has been thoughtfully maintained and updated over time, including a newer roof (2015), updated mechanicals, and a beautifully renovated upstairs bathroom featuring a heated marble floor and clawfoot tub.
Additional improvements include new A/C and backup furnace (2024), interior paint in multiple rooms, updated railings, carpet on stairs, exterior trim work, refinished kitchen floor, and electrical updates throughout.
In 2025, all nine front porch columns were replaced, further enhancing both structure and curb appeal.
For the past seven years, the home has operated as a licensed short-term rental, offering income potential for a future owner.
At the same time, this property presents a unique opportunity to be returned to its original purpose as a stunning primary residence.
Originally, the site of six greenhouses totaling over 6,000 square feet, the surrounding land later became what is now known as Demmler Park, preserving the property’s history and significance within the community.
This is not a typical home.
It is a rare blend of history, character, and opportunity, ideal for a buyer (the 4th owner) who values something truly one-of-a-kind.
