Summary

[edit]
Description

Built in 1896–1897 and renovated in 1910, this Queen Anne-style house in Madison, Wisconsin, was designed by Gordon and Paunack for Halle Steensland, a Norwegian immigrant who worked his way up from store clerk to insurance man and banker, vice-consul to Sweden and Norway, and philanthropist (see the Property Record online). Originally located at 315 North Carroll Street, it was moved 200 feet to its present location at 15 West Gorham Street in 2015 to save it from demolition, and to allow for expansion of the parking lot for the adjacent Bethel Lutheran Church.

The house features a red Medina sandstone base, a red brick exterior with limestone trim, a front and side gable and mansard roof, a central tower with a mansard roof, cornices with decorative motifs, two-over-two and decorative pane windows, two first-floor picture windows with decorative glass transoms, two-story bay windows on the wide facades, arched attic windows on the tower, dormers, and gable ends, a front porch with fluted ionic columns and pilasters supporting a roof with a decorative cornice and sitting on a red Medina sandstone base, and a double front entry door with a transom.

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982.
