Located among a number of homes built in the 19th century by German immigrants to Bastrop, this house was built between 1887 and 1890 for Charles and Maria Kleinert. Fellow German immigrant and local innkeeper A. L. Hoppe bought the property in 1890, and it remained in his family until 1961. A fine example of eclectic Victorian-era design, the house features pedimented architraves, jigsawn porch details, and a distinctive octagonal bay. Recorded Texas Historic Landmark - 1990
