It is also tied to the Stearns family, top executives of the Stearns and Foster Company of Lockland, a mattress manufacturer.","narrative":"Built in 1902 at 333 Oliver Road in Wyoming, Ohio, this two-story Foursquare mansion is faced in random ashlar Bedford stone and topped with a hip tile roof. Elzner and Anderson designed it. The facade has a central pavilion with a porte-cochere, beveled glass double doors, hipped dormers, a stone-railed balcony and a dentiled cornice with exposed rafter ends. A veranda with stone rail and piers marks the east end, and three massive stone chimneys rise along the walls. The house sits on an 8.4-acre sloping lot along a road with some of Wyoming's most distinguished homes. It was listed for its architecture, as a grand turn-of-the-century example unmatched in Wyoming for its scale and use of stone, and for its association with the Stearns family. Edwin Stearns lived there until 1914, followed by Evan Foster Stearns and Evan Foster Stearns Jr., all executives of the Stearns and Foster Company, Lockland mattress manufacturers.","period_of_significance":null,"architect_builder":"Elzner and Anderson (architect); builder unknown","architectural_style":"Foursquare Mansion","criteria":["A","C"],"status_note":"Used as a residence; interior and exterior condition listed as excellent.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:15.035581-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/86001648.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86001648/870f059a10-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/86001648/870f059a10-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY 3.0","author":"Photo by Greg Hume (Greg5030)","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:EdwardStearnsHouseLR.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Photo by Greg Hume (Greg5030)</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/3.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY 3.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:EdwardStearnsHouseLR.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71986414","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Edward_R._Stearns_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q5344962"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/hamilton-county/stearns-edward-r-house-86001648/"}
