Located at 2014 25th Street, this beautiful prairie-style residence was constructed in 1910. In 1915, newlyweds Adolph Teichert, Jr. and his wife, Augusta, purchased the home. Over the next several years, the Teicherts raised four children at their Newton Booth residence. Mrs. Teichert was the maternal granddaughter of renowned Sacramento pioneer, Adolph Heilbron. As a young adult, she studied music abroad in Dresden, Germany. Adolph Teichert Jr. served alongside his father, Adolph Sr., in the capacity of vice president of the A. Teichert & Son Construction Company until his father's retirement, at which point Adolph Jr. was elected president of the company. Adolph Jr.'s grandchildren continue to help lead the company today. Teichert Construction holds California State Contractor’s License #8, the oldest active contractor’s license in California.
