The Eugley House on Water Street was built by Bertha and MC Eugley in about 1908. According to one owner, it was based on a design from the Rhine area of Germany. It is an unusual style described as Queen Anne and Italianate, with a tower reminiscent of Italianate and decorative features. It has been well preserved and is on the local register. The Eugleys only lived here for a short time. Bertha Eugley was a well-known milliner. See Site of Bertha Eugley Millinery on Where Are We? The house is on the local register and is located in the South Capitol Neighborhood National Historic District.
