Designed by Indianapolis architects Burns & James and completed in May 1940, the Maurer House was described by the Brazil Daily Times as representing “the best of modern building efforts.”
For more than eight decades, the distinctive residence has remained known for its architecture, craftsmanship, and enduring character.
Its full-brick exterior, copper gutters, wood shutters, window boxes, and carefully maintained landscaping give the property an unmistakable presence, while the interior preserves hardwood floors, original bathrooms, and other period details alongside a remodeled kitchen.
