Historic agricultural outbuilding listed on the National Register of Historic Places (NRHP).

Built: c. 1915
Alterations: flanking shed additions (c. 1930)
Architectural style: box & wood-frame
Areas of significance: Architecture
Area: less than 1 acre
Date added to NRHP: 7/23/1992
Other designations: part of the White County Multiple Property Submission
Notes: This building was originally built as a residence, but was converted to a feed storage shed around 1930. It is a historically unusual design for either type of building, according to its NRHP nomination: "The use of side-gable sills that are longer than the end-gable sills for the purpose of providing the structural support for an integral, cantilevered porch roof, all the while relying on the vertical planks structurally, is a sub-type of box construction not often seen throughout the state, and certainly not in White County."
