Own a legacy piece of Nebraska history with the iconic Muir House, a stunning 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath historic home built between 1868 and 1870 by early pioneer and entrepreneur Robert Valentine Muir. Located in the heart of Brownville—one of the Midwest’s most charming river towns—this elegant Italianate brick residence offers a rare blend of architectural beauty, craftsmanship, and everyday livability. Step inside and experience timeless character, featuring original woodwork in butternut, bird’s-eye maple, and black walnut—materials milled from local timber at Muir’s own sawmill. High ceilings, detailed trim, and historic design elements that simply cannot be replicated in modern construction. Enjoy expansive gardens, timeless trees, and an original croquet court bordered with brick sidewalk in the lower garden. 2/B/JP
