Morning arrives gently at 311 South Jennings Street, lighting the navy blue exterior and spilling across the wraparound porch. There's a chair waiting, coffee in your cup, and a view of lush green grass beneath mature trees. Above you, the corner tower rises to its pointed roof. A beautiful reminder that this is a home with a story. That story began in 1892, when newspaper publisher Fred H. Nauer and his wife, Elizabeth, built this Queen Anne Victorian. For 47 years, they called it home while Fred helped shape North Vernon's newspaper history by bringing together the Banner and Plain Dealer. Today, the Fred Nauer House is documented as a contributing property in the State Street Historic District, with its next chapter waiting to be written. And what a setting for that chapter. A beautiful slate roof, patterned shingles, contrasting trim, and warm decorative accents reward a closer look. The porch follows the curve of the tower, offering an inviting place for morning coffee in the east-facing sunlight, long conversations, and afternoons that stretch a little longer than planned. A front walkway crosses the lovely lawn and leads straight to the welcoming steps. Inside, 2,495 square feet provide 3 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms.Step inside, and a beautifully remodeled kitchen gives this historic home a fresh chapter. All new cabinetry makes it a dream kitchen to call your own. A welcoming setting for morning routines, favorite recipes, and preparing something special for the people gathered around you. With 2,495 square feet, 3 bedrooms, and 2 full bathrooms, the home offers room to settle in and make memories. If you've ever slowed down to admire a Victorian and imagined what life might be like behind its front door, come experience this one. Picture cooking in the remodeled kitchen, enjoying the lawn, and greeting another morning from your favorite porch chair. At 311 South Jennings Street, more than a century of history meets the beginning of your own story.
