Gundlach-Grosse Home
John Gundlach
Classical Revival
The house was build for Mr. A Grosse, who also owned and operated the "Grosse Inn", which is the same "Buck Tavern" recorded under the Historic American Buildings Survey. The building has characteristics of the mid-western classic revival, and in comparison with other structures in the community, it definitely establishes the higher station in life held by Mr. Grosse in this locality.
