About This Home

8488 Main Street

Don't miss your chance to own a piece of history. Built in 1830 by Dr. Simon Hyde, one of Rushville's earliest physicians, this brick home blends timeless character with modern updates. Featuring approximately 4,000+ square feet of living space, 3 bedrooms, 2 full and 2 half baths, generously sized living areas, and an approximately 600-square-foot kitchen with hardwood flooring, the home offers an extraordinary amount of space and character. The two front bedrooms originally served as the Men's Masonic Temple meeting room and the Northern Star female meeting room. The main front entry showcases Masonic architectural elements, including Masonic Bible pillars and a Masonic urn. Recent updates include the shingle roof approximately 3 years old, updated electrical, approximately 60 replacement windows, multiple heating and cooling systems, tankless water heating, and new flooring in the living room and office. The property also features a real standing-seam metal roof backed by a 100-year warranty. The oversized garage provides abundant storage along with finished space currently used as an art room and workout room. A screened porch and outdoor spaces further extend the living area. A parking area leading to the garage measures approximately 44 feet wide by 18 feet deep. The story of this home is every bit as remarkable as the house itself. The property is a documented Underground Railroad site and is associated with Joseph Selby and the history surrounding ''Darling Nelly Gray.'' A State of Ohio historical marker was installed at the property in 2026. The sale also includes an extensive collection of documentation, a pre-1850 photograph of the home, original artwork, artifacts, dishes, furniture, and family history passed down through descendants of Dr. Hyde. Rarely does a home offer this combination of historic significance, architectural character, generous living space, and modern updates. Come check it out!
