About this home

The Boehne House stands as a limestone monument of Neoclassical stature occupying over two acres in the heart of Evansville. Historically known as Monticello, this 9,257 sq ft estate offers a level of physical mass and modern sovereignty that defines the urban compound. Every structural and mechanical system exists in a state of peak performance following a systematic period of restoration. The mechanical infrastructure provides the reliability of a contemporary build. Three independent climate control systems ensure precision comfort across every floor, with updated units servicing the main, second, and third levels. The entire roofing system for the primary residence and the carriage house is 5 years old. Plumbing and electrical systems were fully modernized with recent electrical updates to the basement and the third floor. Structural integrity is a matter of record with support systems installed in 2023 to provide permanent stability for this limestone masterwork. The living spaces reflect a high standard of finish. The kitchen serves as a professional culinary center with quartz countertops and a commercial grade 6 burner Bertazzoni range. Six expansive bedrooms occupy the upper floors, including a finished 3rd story suite with its own private bath. A new full bathroom was added to the basement in 2024 to compliment the spare room, with a tankless water heater to provide consistent capacity. Outside, the property offers a compound lifestyle. The 2.04 acre grounds provide a private sanctuary with a privacy fenced backyard. The sports bottom pool features a new pump replaced in April 2025. Modern logistical needs are met with an electric car charging station and multiple exterior electrical outlets. The estate includes a detached carriage house and a substantial auxiliary building offering an abundance of storage space. Provenance is verified by its 1912 construction for Congressman John W. Boehne and its 1983 listing on the National Register of Historic Places.The systems are current. The land is expansive. The legacy is supreme. The Boehne House is ready. The successor is you.
