Realtor Comments

The historic Warren S. Randall House in Poplar Bluff, Missouri. Built in 1889, this Italianate styled home is a piece of history that sits on the edge of downtown. In 1910 a wrap around porch was added to the home with wood Tuscan columns resting on brick piers and brick railings. An additional styled porch is on the northwest side of home. The porch ceiling is painted haunt blue as a custom in the south as folklore. Step back in time and imagine having afternoon tea in the parlor. This home has much of the original woodwork and flooring, working pocket doors. Beautiful home. 3 bedroom, 2 bath (2 claw foot tubs), Updated kitchen. High ceilings, living room, dining room, parlor and 10×10 foyer with stairs going upstairs and downstairs to stone basement. This home also has a kitchenette upstairs.

Family History

Randall

This was the home of Warren S. Randall (1849-1922). He married Annie Marks (1860-1948) in 1880 and the couple had two sons, Frank and Merle, but Franks died before age two.  Warren Randal was postmaster for a time, then became part owner of the Bluff City Grocer Company. After he died in 1922, the house changed hands.

 

Carlyle

From what I can gather from old newspaper ads, in 1924, this home was owned by Mrs. J.W. Carlyle. She rented out furnished rooms in the house, and at some point turned it into a boarding house for pregnant ladies called the Modern Maternity Home. By 1926, however, she catered more to male lodgers. In 1926, a boarder named John Huff lost his black and tan, white crested, bob-tailed rat terrier from the home and offered a reward for its return.
