Brye House - Old Town Auburn


The Fred Brye Home was built in 1882.  The original owner of this home, Charles Simons, came to Auburn in 1850 to try his hand at being a miner.  He later became an owner of a saloon in town.  Around 1900 the home was sold to Fred Brye, a local butcher.  His family lived in the home for about 20 years.  


The home has been converted many times in its history.  It was used as a 12-unit apartment, a christmas store and most recently an office building.  

I can imagine back in the 1800's this was a beautiful estate on a large hill overlooking the town and courthouse.
