**Off Market**
In the late 1800s a pioneer set out for the city of Sioux Falls. He was out for adventure and a challenge never stopped him from progress. He held many positions and had a few struggles along the way. But he perservered. Are you a pioneer? Are you afraid of a challenge? NO! You embrace them. Cyrus Walts would like you. He loved design, do you? In 1890 he had a renowned architect, Wallace Dow, design a a Queen Anne inspired, Two story home with a wrap around deck and a spire. You might be familiar with Wallace's other work. The Old Courthouse downtown was one of his most revered.
