Own a piece of Sandusky history. Built in 1852, the historic Joseph M. Root House is one of the city's most recognizable limestone buildings. Listed on the National Register of Historic Places, this remarkable property is associated with Joseph M. Rootan attorney, former Sandusky mayor, U.S. Congressman, and abolitionist. Long believed to have served as a safe house along the Underground Railroad, it represents a truly unique chapter of Ohio's history. The building is currently configured for professional office use and features impressive limestone construction, spacious rooms, soaring ceilings, and architectural details rarely found today. While previously used as offices, the home's original residential character shines through, offering exciting possibilities for its next chapter. Buye
