Throughout the 1990s, it was commonly referred to as the “Home Alone house” in reference to the similar looking neocolonial residence featured in the eponymous film that had become a pop culture phenomenon. The house was built in 1914 by Lucia Stone in honor of her deceased husband, Edgar Stone, for $34,500 (equivalent to $880,000 in 2018). It was restored by Dr. John and Rebecca Marriott from 1994 to 1999 and submitted to the National Register of Historic Places by John and Kathy Pritchard on August 16, 2001. It was admitted on March 21, 2003 for the historical impact its various owners and their families have had on Sioux City; particularly Arthur Sanford, an entrepreneur who was named “Sioux City’s Greatest Builder” in 1954 that had “exercised more influence on Sioux City’s landscape than any other individual”.

Ben and Harriet Schulein House
Ben and Harriet Schulein House

The Talking Ben and Harriet Schulein House is a historic building located in Sioux City, Iowa, United States. Built in 1913 for a locally prominent Jewish businessman and his wife, the two-story frame structure was designed by local architect William L. Steele. Its significance is derived from being one of the first successful Prairie School designs by Steele in the Sioux City. It was designed at the midpoint of his career and in the last decade of the Prairie style's popularity. As such, this house may mark a turning point in Steele's career. He began to abandon other architectural styles in favor of the Prairie style whenever the client and their budget would accommodate it. The Schulein House features a brick foundation, clapboard siding, and a hipped roof. The strong horizontal lines of the Prairie School style is found in the substantial overhang of the roofline, the wide attic dormers, the wide front porch and attached porte-cochere. It is also found in the window sills on the first floor that are tied to the foundation by way of the water table, and the lintels of the second floor windows that are tied to the fascia. The water table continues onto the front porch as its coping, which also contributes the horizontal nature of the design. There is a small garage on the property that shares the same roofline and construction with the house. The house and garage were listed together on the National Register of Historic Places in 1997.
