Andrews commissioned this home to be built in 1896 on a premier plot of land. The architecture and interior details were very forward thinking.

The second floor unit was the personal residence of Wilbur J. Andrews and his family. The design incororates two front entrances; one into the personal residence and the other into his private law office. The luxurious original walnut wood paneling and built-in bookcases showcase this expansive room. This room accesses the main residence. It consists of a spacious living room with woodburning fireplace flanked by original built-in bookcases, light and bright sun room, formal dining room, eat-in kitchen, two additional spacious bedrooms and full bathroom.
