1975 Owner:  Fred S. Kaiser. Wooster Pike AC Irr R2-T5-529 SW
Description: Stucco, 2 story with large barn behind house.
Story 1: The house and barn were part of the Kaiser's homestead called "Orchard Hill", so named to reflect the orchard on the hillside.  Mr. Kaiser sold fruit at a roadside stand and raised hogs and sheep on the property.  Also had chickens.
Story 2: In the 1950s he constructed 9 hotel cottages below the orchard and called them "Orchard Hill Modern Motel".  The Porters gave the structures (8 small cabins or cottages) to the Terrace Park Fire Dept in 1987 to use as practice demos. (see 850 Wooster)  Pictures in Fire Dept. file.
