Al and Susie Odum home, 1643 US 52 West, Rushville. This house was built in 1900, remodeled in the mid-1960s and a porch and gazebo added in 1998. In January 2004 the house was mostly destroyed by fire. The original house was torn down to the studs and put back to its original look on the outside.

Inside changes were made, making the rooms more open, and a new kitchen installed. A double fireplace between the living and sitting rooms was kept and a brick arch added.
