Description and history
Built in 1928, the house was designed by Herman Bruns in the Tudor Revival style. Designed to resemble a country house, the house includes a glass conservatory with a fountain, stained glass windows, and wrought iron fixtures. Edwin J. Nieman Sr., the home's owner, was a partner in the Fromm Bros.-Nieman Co., at the time the largest silver fox breeder in the nation; the home originally bordered one of the firm's fox farms on all sides. Nieman lived in the house until he died in 1985.[2][3]
