The 7.2-acre property also has a barn and the chimney ruin of a summer kitchen.","why_significant":"The nomination argues the house is an excellent example of a vernacular I-house with a side gallery variant, as practiced in Franklin County in the late 1840s. It is described as unique in Jackson Township as the only five-bay I-house with a double galleried recessed porch. Its simple facade, stone lintels, 6/6 windows, sidelights and transom recall the Federal style.","narrative":"Built around 1848 on Hibbs Road near Lockbourne, this five-bay brick farmhouse was constructed for Samuel Landes, a prominent farmer in southern Franklin County. It follows the I-house type, with a coursed stone foundation, paired interior chimneys, flat stone lintels, six-over-six windows, and an entrance with sidelights and transom. A long rear ell carries a double galleried recessed porch, which makes the house unusual among Jackson Township's farmhouses, where it is the only five-bay I-house with that feature. Landes mortgaged part of his land in 1845, probably to pay for construction. After his death in 1870 and that of his widow Nancy in 1875, the farm passed to Lewis and Sallie Bunn, who added Italianate touches in the 1870s. A 40 by 40 foot barn with hand hewn beams and a summer kitchen chimney remain on the 7.2-acre property. The house was listed for its architectural value as a locally distinctive vernacular building.","period_of_significance":"1800-1899 (specific date c. 1848)","architect_builder":null,"architectural_style":"I-house (vernacular), side gallery variant, with Federal style details","criteria":["C"],"status_note":"Occupied as a private residence and described as being restored, with electric, plumbing and heating added; the house is otherwise in original though neglected condition.","vacant_flag":false,"machine_generated":true,"model":"claude-sonnet-5-5","prompt_version":"v1.0-2026-10-29","generated_at":"2026-10-29 02:53:15.181092-05","source_pdf":"https://s3.amazonaws.com/NARAprodstorage/lz/electronic-records/rg-079/NPS_OH/87000688.pdf"},"photo":{"url_800":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87000688/6d3836cc0f-800.webp","url_1600":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/media/87000688/6d3836cc0f-1600.webp","licence":"CC BY-SA 4.0","author":"Ɱ","credit_html":"<a href=\"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Samuel_Landes_House.jpg\" rel=\"noopener\">Ɱ</a>, <a href=\"https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0\" rel=\"license noopener\">CC BY-SA 4.0</a>, via Wikimedia Commons","source_page":"https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Samuel_Landes_House.jpg"},"district":null,"sources":{"nps_snapshot_date":"2026-05-22","nara_catalog":"https://catalog.archives.gov/id/71988398","wikipedia":"https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samuel_Landes_House","wikidata":"https://www.wikidata.org/wiki/Q105082048"},"indexable":true,"url":"https://nationalhistoricalregister.com/ohio/franklin-county/landes-samuel-house-87000688/"}
