    HISTORIC GROUND HOUSE — CARTHAGE, MISSOURI Built in 1897 | 5,176+ Sq. Ft. | 3 Stories | 7 Bedrooms A rare opportunity to own one of Carthage’s most remarkable historic homes! Built in 1897 by John W. Ground, a prominent pioneer railroad builder, mine operator, and industrial entrepreneur, this magnificent Queen Anne Victorian mansion was celebrated in its day as one of the handsomest residences in Carthage. The home encompasses over 5,176 square feet and is filled with the craftsmanship and grandeur of the Victorian era. Features include soaring 12-foot ceilings, grand 9-foot original doors, and beautifully preserved ornate woodwork throughout. The incredible details found in this home are a true reflection of a bygone era. A FASCINATING PIECE OF CARTHAGE HISTORY In July 1931, the Ground House began a new chapter in its history when Dr. Albert Bynum Wheeler, who had established his medical practice in Carthage in 1926, converted the spacious former residence into Stone Memorial Hospital, a specialized osteopathic hospital. Stone Memorial Hospital operated from the home until the facility eventually outgrew the space and was moved to a greatly expanded location further down the street. Over 125 years of history, countless stories, and generations of craftsmanship are preserved within these walls. HOME FEATURES • 5,176+ square feet • 3 stories • 7 bedrooms • 2 full bathrooms • 1 half bathroom • 12-foot ceilings • 9-foot original doors • Ornate original woodwork • Grand Queen Anne Victorian architecture • 3rd-floor servants’ quarters with 3 bedrooms • Historic former Stone Memorial Hospital location •Radiator heat and mini split •Cooling - Mini split •Zoned commercial & residential This is more than a house — it’s a piece of Carthage history waiting for its next chapter.
