It was designed by Cincinnati architect Guy C. Burroughs.","why_significant":"The nomination argues local significance under Criterion C as an early twentieth-century estate and a good example of Colonial Revival design by Guy C. Burroughs. It was also one of five residences in a family compound built by grocery magnate Bernard H. Kroger for his children, which is described as the only known family compound in Indian Hill.","narrative":"Set on high ground above Cunningham Road in Indian Hill, this 19-room white-painted brick house was completed in 1928 for Gretchen Kroger Barnes and her husband. Architect Guy C. Burroughs of Cincinnati designed it in the Colonial Revival style, with a center-hall plan, slate roof, gabled dormers, a full-façade two-story porch and an entrance topped by a Palladian window. It was one of five houses Bernard H. Kroger, the Cincinnati grocery magnate, built for his children on land he bought in 1926, forming what the nomination calls the only known family compound in Indian Hill. The service wing was enlarged in 1938 with a four-car garage, and a solarium and library bow window were added in the 1960s by later owners. The 13-acre grounds now hold a lake, sculptures and a guest house added after the period of significance. The house is valued locally as an intact example of Burroughs's estate work.","period_of_significance":"1928-1960","architect_builder":"Guy C. Burroughs (1928 construction); F.
