Also known as The Heights, it was built for businessman George E. Dovey around 1887. It is Queen Anne in style. Queen Anne features include its "steeply-pitched roof with intersecting, asymmetrical cross gables, multiple variations of spindle work throughout both the interior and exterior, a one-story veranda along the front elevation and wraps around to the side, and a rounded tower on a prominent corner of the house that extends past the roofline." Inside it has its "original hardwood floors, pocket doors, elaborate woodwork, and period-appropriate wallpaper." It was deemed significant as a local example "of a Late Victorian home in the Queen Anne subtype."[2]
It was listed along with the Velosco V. Leonard House, also in Plattsmouth.[3]
It is located at 423 N 4th St. in Plattsmouth.[1]
