The Edward Yeakel House, at 116 Decatur St. in Brandenburg, Kentucky, was built around 1885 to 1890. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1984. [1]

It is Queen Anne in style. It is two-and-a-half-stories tall, and has a three-story tower. It was built for Edward Yeakel, a merchant in Brandenburg. It was bought in 1920 by a Dr. Baxter, who used it for a medical office and as a residence. The property was deemed "architecturally significant as the outstanding example of the Queen Anne style in Brandenburg." [2]

The listing included a second contributing building, which might be either a one-story root cellar built of limestone and brick, or a one-story frame carriage house. [2]
