About This Home
Largely considered the oldest home in Marathon County, the “William Devoe” house features two separate suites, each with a wood burning fireplace, newly updated baths w/ modern sinks & shower stalls, and new kitchenettes. Centrally located in Wausau's historic Andrew Warren District, this home is well maintained with high ceilings, original wood flooring, and a lovely front porch. The lower unit sports original tin ceilings and matching tin crown molding, and the upper has open beam ceilings. This property could easily be converted into a single-family home, but has an exceptional rental history, popular with skiers and downtown Wausau visitors. There is ample off-street parking with a large blacktopped lot to the rear. Currently used as a very successful Air BnB, it is part of the former Roenberry Inn, currently doing business as the Bougainvillea Bed & Breakfast. The owner prefers to sell this property as a package along with 511 Franklin St, an 8-unit Bed & Breakfast directly across the street, and the 2 properties can be purchased together for $549,900.
