The story
- Basement
One of the oldest Victorians in Southern Oregon, eligible for the historic register, the Henry Klippel House has been home to only four families in its 160 years. Built for one of three prospectors credited with the 1853 discovery of Crater Lake, the main house offers 4 spacious bedrooms (incl. ground floor primary suite) and 3.5 baths, with another bedroom and half bath in its guesthouse. Restored by contractor Roger Whipple in the 1990s, with a new shake roof in 2025 and master bath remodel in 2026, the house retains its original hardwood floors, paned windows, brass gasolier fixtures, and brick fireplace. Airy 10' ceilings, covered porches, and custom woodwork showcase the home's craftsmanship. Set on a .27-acre corner lot blocks from shops and restaurants, the property also includes a detached 2-car garage with workroom, and a two-story ADU with full kitchen, half bath, private entrance and parking. A once-in-a-generation chance to steward one of Jacksonville's historic treasures
