It was part of the estate of Philip Sherer, a veteran of the War of 1812.

It is believed the house was originally 1\u00bd stories tall, but likely after Sherer\u2019s death the roof was raised to a full 2 stories, the front clapboards replaced, the windows changed to 2\/2 lights, and the brackets and pedimented window frames added.<\/p>\n<p>Preservation of Historic Winchester purchased the house through the Jennings Revolving Fund as part of the Irene Hodgson estate in 1979. The current owners, Tom and Deanna Stouffer, purchased the home in 2011 and have steadily been improving the home, inside and out. <\/p>\n<p>Be sure to look for the directional signage at this home, as we plan to have tours enter through a side alley to see the deep back yard and garden improvements and exit the front porch to prevent congestion on the sidewalk.<\/p>\n<p>The home will be open for Candlelight Tours on Saturday, December 2, 6-9 p.m., and Daylight Tours on Sunday, December 3, 1-5 p.m.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>125 East Clifford Street The home of Tom and Deanna Stouffer This vernacular home with Italianate influences may date back to the 1830s.
