The Schupp House was built by August Schupp in 1908. Originally used as a farmhouse, the house is a side-gabled family folk house,
representative of the craftsman movement.
August Schupp ran a cigar store in Denver; however, he wanted his family to live away from the city. He built the house at 1275 Ames
Street, near 12th Avenue and Sheridan Boulevard. The property originally comprised 80 acres, including the tracks where the Interurban
ran from Denver to Golden.
The Schupps grew most of their own food, and the property also had a vine-covered garden house where Mr. Schupp taught German to his
children. The Schupp House represents an early farmhouse in an area where few examples of such a house exist today. The owner as of
2014 was Bertha A. Drobnick Penn.
