History
Frank L. Chenoweth, a wealthy local merchant and the son of early resident Benjamin Chenoweth, built the house in 1888-89. The two-and-a-half story house has a Queen Anne design featuring a wraparound front porch with ornamental spindlework, a pediment with a sunburst design above the entrance, and a projecting bay topped by a large bracketed pediment with a matching sunburst. The complex roof includes a cornice and patterned frieze and is topped by a three-story octagonal tower with a spire. Chenoweth was socially prominent in Monroe, and he hosted many large parties and gatherings at his house.
The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1976 and on the State Register of Historic Places in 1989.
