Henry Sehring House — 315 Bridge Street

 

The Henry Sehring House is a 2 ½ story, wood clapboard, Queen Anne/Classical style structure built in 1895 on a Joliet limestone foundation. The house, designed by Joliet architect Hugo Boehme, is dominated by a large, open wrap porch which encircles a turret on the left side. The structure has a pyramidal hip roof with dormers on all 4 sides. The corners of the house are framed with Classical pilasters that are fluted below the eaves. The home is one of 3 remaining Sehring mansions, which formed a cluster near the former Sehring Brewery location at the northwest corner of Bridge and Summit Streets.

The structure is a Local Landmark.
