Carl L. Hoera, of Hoera-Rosenthall Safe Co., and his wife, Jennie, purchased this Hillcrest property in 1922 and resided here the following year. The Carb Building Co. was most likely responsible for the construction of the residence. The charming, one-story brick veneer house has a whimsical front elevation and finely detailed wood trim. The Period Revival style of the house successfully recalls a European cottage; the house remains in excellent original condition.
