Built in the 1880s by Henry D. Gruene, this was the home of the family of Erhardt Neuse, field foreman of H.D. Gruene's vast cotton interests. The Neuse family continued to reside here until the 1930s, when the town of Gruene experienced a decline. Features of the late 19th-century vernacular cottage include an extended side bay with angled corners, board-and-batten siding, and an inset front porch with milled brackets.
