About 1319 Tiffin Ave

Own a Remarkable Piece of Sandusky History Step into the legacy of Sandusky with this iconic mansion, originally built in 1885 by August Kuebeler, a German-born entrepreneur and founder of a prominent local brewery. This grand residence is proudly listed on the National Register of Historic Places since 1982. Spanning approximately 10,552 square feet on a 0.77-acre lot, the home features 6 bedrooms and many bathrooms, offering impressive space and architectural charm. Over the decades, it has evolved to meet the needs of the community serving as the Erie County Juvenile Detention Center for over 40 years, and more recently as a bar, event center, and banquet hall. Its rich history, combined with unmatched adaptability, makes this property a rare opportunity for investors, preservationists, or those seeking a truly unique residence. A lasting symbol of Sandusky's architectural and social heritage. Most of the home has been gutted and is ready for you to make it amazing again!
