About this home

Historic circa-1857 brick home offering more than 4,000 square feet of timeless character and architectural detail. Built by Thomas Marshall, a descendant of U.S. Supreme Court Chief Justice John Marshall, this stately residence is rich in local history and known to have hosted notable figures of its era, including visits from Abraham Lincoln. The home was later occupied by John P. St. John, former Governor of Kansas, and owned by the Gerald Moore family and other prominent citizens. This two-story residence features four bedrooms on the upper level, along with one full bathroom, a kitchenette, and a large walk-in closet. The main level offers original hardwood floors throughout and multiple living spaces, including a living room, a brick formal parlor with original double doors, a dining room with dual built-in cabinets, a family room, and two half bathrooms. Multiple original fireplaces remain throughout the home, showcasing period craftsmanship and detailing. Architectural
