Are you the ONE that will preserve and restore this unique piece of Lindsborg history? This "Scripture" home built by John Fredrick Elmquist (a stone mason) in 1877, is believed to be one of Lindsborg's oldest residences. Awesome eyebrows on the exterior of the original home are enhanced with scroll work or "scriptures" in the concrete walls. Currently utilized as a 3 bedroom home; one in the original home and 2 bedrooms upstairs in the frame portion. Nestled on a large tree shaded corner lot and conveniently a short walk to downtown. If you're a contractor/carpenter with a passion for history preservation, we'd LOVE to talk to you about this home.
