Historic & Eclectic Third Ward Eau Claire Home

The Black Penny is a one-of-a-kind historic home located in Eau Claire’s beloved Third Ward; a neighborhood known for its charm, walkability, and proximity to everything the city has to offer.

Originally built in the late 1800s, this home retains its historic character steeped in Eau Claire`s early growth and lumber-era roots while embracing lively, eclectic décor and modern updates. Warm colors, layered textures, curated vintage pieces, and inviting common spaces give the home a distinctive personality that feels both artistic and comfortable.

The layout is ideal for families, groups, or extended stays, offering four private bedrooms and two full bathrooms. Outside, guests enjoy a fully fenced backyard and free off-street parking, a rare find this close to downtown.

Perfectly situated near UW–Eau Claire, downtown Eau Claire restaurants and shops, local hospitals and clinics, bike trails, riverfront recreation, and seasonal events, The Black Penny makes an excellent home base whether you’re visiting for work, family, or a getaway.

I loved staying at this property! It was so cozy and welcome and I just love the whole vibe of the decor! Beautiful house and enjoyed a fire outside in the fire pit. It's really close to a lot of fun activities, parks and restaurants to try which was a lot of fun as well. I would definitely come back again sometime.
