Octagon House in Whitewater, WI


127 North Newcomb Street
Whitewater, WI

I came across an old photo of this octagon shaped home in a book on Whitewater, WI. I didn’t pay it much thought at the time, but today I drove past it by accident.

I spoke with the sister of the home’s owner, who was packing her car. Erin told me a little bit about the home. The basement is a dirt foundation and not currently used for much. The ground level floor has a living room, kitchen, and small dining area. There is indeed a second floor to this home. A very tiny staircase leads to two bedrooms and a bathroom on the second floor. The home is currently occupied by a man, woman, and their young daughter.
