This large two and one-half story Craftsman Bungalow was built in 1907-08 for
Alexander Daue by his brother Louis S. Daue. The house has a raised veranda on the north side.
Louis S. Daue was listed as the architect of the house but if he was truly an architect, this is the only house in Oregon that he designed. His brother Alexander moved to Salem in 1891. Together the brothers formed a partnership selling groceries, crockery, clothing, glassware and other goods.
The house remained in the Daue family for at least 70 years. Today it hosts an antique and gift shop for the benefit of the Assistance League of Salem, a non-profit organization.
