History
The house was built by craftsman Brady Anderson. It was purchased by Norwegian newspaperman and author Waldemar Ager in 1903. The Ager family owned the house until 1962, when it was bought by the local hospital. In 1993, when the hospital need the land to expand its complex, the house was donated to the Waldemar Ager Foundation. Originally located on Chestnut Street, the house was then moved to its current location. Afterwards, the house was restored to its appearance during the 1900s. The second floor has since been converted into a resource library.
