In 1821, the lot that is now 211 Vine Street was created from a fraction of 618 Oak Street and 619 Line Street (the properties on each side). Mr. and Mrs. James Gray built the house in 1909. It stayed in the Gray family until 1920, when the property was sold to Mr. and Mrs. A.T. Hanson. The residence was bought and sold several times over the next 42 years, but mostly belonged to someone in the Hanson family.

Since 1982 this porperty has had many owners call it home, and each owner has updated it and left their mark along the way. A back porch was enclosed at some point but the original footprint has never been changed. The first time Renee walked into the house and heard the nearby church bells ringing, she fell in love with it. She bought the property in 2008, and has renovated the interior extensively. She and her son love the neighborhood and the warmth of this home.
