The Israel Beetison House, located southeast of Ashland, Nebraska, was built in 1874. It was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1977.[1]

Its 1976 NRHP nomination states that it "stands as one of the fine examples of the Italianate style of architecture in Nebraska. Due to the economic hardship associated with the settlement of a wilderness territory, the Greek and Gothic Revivals saw very little development in Nebraska before they had passed out of favor. The Italianate was probably the first style in the state to gain widespread popularity."[2]
