The History Of The Dansereau House.
The Dansereau House - circa 1840 and 1870 - is in the
national register of historic places and was developed and renovated by
Jim and Joan Rogers in 1996 in conjunction with local investors. The home
was first a story and a half cottage and was purchased by the Dansereau's,
a group of French Canadian doctors, in 1852.
After
the civil war, the Dansereau family added the upper floors and gallery.
The house served as both home and clinic to several of the Dansereau family.
The outdoor kitchen was used as a pharmacy.
The home is unique in that it is a combination of Italianate and second empire architecture with a mansard roof, attic and cupula.
The Dansereau's, Pierre, Hercule and François and other members of the family practiced medicine in the house until the early 1940's.
The home and grounds where lovingly restored to what it is today ... It represents a magnificent place in time ... A place to recapture the past and enjoy the present in all its glory.
