The Clark House is a unique example of the Eastlake style in Fullerton. Moved to the Fullerton(Submitted on December 4, 2024, by Tatiana Zavala of Orange County, California.)
Arboretum from its original location at 114 North Lemon Street in 1972, the house was subsequently restored over a number of years and has been given the name Heritage House. The original gabled roof had to be removed for the move; a new roof as well as a double chimney was reconstructed, identical to the original. The interior has been fully restored and refurbished with furniture and medical equipment of the era. A new ramp for handicap accessibility was constructed on the backside.
The Clark House is one of the oldest surviving homes constructed within the citys original townsite. This exquisite home provides a valuable memory of the appearance of a prominent residence in Fullerton around the turn of the century.
