Description and history

edit

Built sometime between 1850 and 1860, the 1½-story vernacular stone house features a symmetrical, three-bay-wide, facade on the eave side, and a single-story wing in the back. While one of the very few stone buildings in Sabula, it is an example of the common type of stone house found in Jackson County.[2] John S. Dominy, who is associated with this house, built the first blacksmith shop in town. The person who designed and built this house is not known.[2]

It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places on July 24, 1992.[1]
