The Ann Bean house is located at 319 Pine Street West in Stillwater, Minnesota. In 1879, the Stillwater Lumberman in noted ""Edward Hersey about to build on lots at Pine and Sixth."" Behind those few words are numerous associations: the construction of another opulent home for another of Stillwater's well-to-do lumber families, the possible involvement of architect George Orff in his second home for a Hersey brother, and the abundant use of large, eye-catching architectural elements. The Victorian home offers a virtual laundry list of stylistic elements: a tower, a veranda, a gable, a large chimney, and a two-story bay. While calling such an elaborate structure a ""starter home"" seems strange, Edward Hersey did indeed decide to start over with a new home, selling the house to fellow lumberman Jacob Bean in May, 1881 and building a new home at 320 Pine in 1883. In 1889, Jacob Bean was appointed to the prestigious and powerful position of surveyor general of logs, with the St. Paul Daily globe noting he was ""considerably more than half millionaire, and one of the heaviest log dealers in the Northwest. "" (February 3, 1889) As a political appointment, he held this position until 1893. Cynthia and Jacob made a permanent move to the Alhambra home in Stillwater in 1901, and the Lehmicke family became the home's long-term residents. In recognition of Ann Bean Lehmicke's long association with the house, it became known as the Ann Bean Mansion over time.
