Jacob Schunk Farmhouse

In my recent pursuit to model every building in the registry of historic buildings, I found that there are two located in my hometown of Germantown Wisconsin. One is surprisingly close to the house that I grew up in, that being the Jacob Schunk farmhouse.

It was built in 1858 for German dairy farmer Jacob and his wife Mary Ann. They lived in the house until their deaths, passing it onto their son and his family. The area around the house is still untouched, though the land nearby has been developed for other residences. It is incredible to me how many times I have driven past the property without even realizing there was a house there, let alone one from 1858. The old trees along the road really camouflage the property. A hidden gem.
