About this home

Own a рiесе of Ꮮynn Ηaven history with the iconiс 'Castle Ηouse', a unique 4-bedroom, 2-bath home built on three lots and offering 2381 square feet of living space and over a century of character and charm. Originally constructed in 1912 by Union Veteran L.C. Christopherson, the home was sold in 1913 to fellow Union Veteran Andrew Jackson and his wife, Martha. Jackson served in Company F of the 35th Indiana Infantry. During the late 1920s, under subsequent ownership, the home's distinctive Spanish-style porch and garage were added while Lynn Haven's City Hall was under construction, giving rise to the property's enduring nickname, ''The Castle House.'' The J.B. Atkinson family resided in the home until 1936, and the property later became part of local legend. Known as ''The Castle House.'' It was rumored to have housed Hollywood icon Clark Gable when he was stationed at Tyndall Field in 1941 for military pilot training during World War II. While never officially documented, the story became widely accepted throughout the community. Today, The Castle House remains one of Lynn Haven's most recognizable landmarks. Its distinctive blend of architectural styles, fascinating history, and timeless character create a truly rare opportunity to own a home on three lots, which is as memorable as it is historic. All measurements and square footage are approximate and should be independently verified by the buyer. Information is deemed reliable but not guaranteed.
