Schoolhouse Homestead
We purchased this 1914 Indiana school back in August of ’21 and we’ve been working to bring her back to life! My husband and I are two Indiana kids who’ve spent the last 10 years living in NYC. We always planned on moving back to the Midwest but after our son was born in the spring of 2021, our Midwest plan narrowed to our hometown where both of our parents still live.
The school was active between 1914 and 1934, and then from 1934 to ~1956 it was a barn that housed cattle, pigs, chickens, sheep, and turkeys. From 1956-2021, another family called our school home.
Since we bought this old school, we’ve put in a new roof, waterproofed the foundation, fixed MANY floor joists… And have gone through many dumpsters to clean out 50+ years of stuff that was left inside and outside the school.
We want to preserve and restore as much as possible and we'll continue sharing this school's story as we go!
