Own a remarkable piece of Spearfish history, the home built in 1898 by legendary cowboy and trail boss James Albert “Tennessee” Vaughn and his wife Ella. Tennessee is credited with bringing more cattle from Texas into the Dakota and Wyoming territories than any other individual, helping shape the American West as we know it. After settling in the Black Hills, his legacy became part of local history, and a statue honoring him greets visitors at the High Plains Western Heritage Center.

This 3BR (plus 2 non-conforming), 2BA home blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates. The home features antique doors sourced from colonial-era farmhouses, custom woodworking, and all the comforts of contemporary living. Recent improvements include a new cedar shake roof, water treatment system, brand new refrigerator and dishwasher, and privacy gates and fencing. The property includes a detached garage with a cozy woodshop warmed by a newly installed wood stove, the perfect space for projects, hobbies, or additional storage. This is a rare opportunity to own a true in-town Spearfish property where restaurants, shops, parks, the bike path, Black Hills State University, the middle school and high school, and downtown amenities are all within walking distance. Best of all, it’s just a hop, skip, and jump from Dower’s Hole on Spearfish Creek. Homes with this level of history, craftsmanship, and location rarely come available in Spearfish.

Showings start June 21st.
