Here's your chance to own a piece of history. The Gummer House was built in 1912 as a wedding gift from Henry Burkhardt to his daughter Susan and son-in-law. Susan lived in the home until her death in 1964. That same year, Beta Sigma Phi of Dayton purchased the home as their local headquarters. In 1978 the home was placed on the National Register of Historic Places. This is a six bedroom home that includes separate living quarters with its own kitchen, bath, 2 bedrooms and entry on the 3rd floor. The home has many possible uses such as a stand alone dwelling, business meeting center, rental for weddings or other events, etc...

Throughout the home you will find woodwork that was fashioned from materials imported from the Black Forest along with other preservation keeping with the period.
