Minnie Hill Palmer House

The Minnie Hill Palmer House, also known as The Homestead Acre, is the only remaining homestead cottage in the San Fernando Valley. The cottage is a redwood Stick-Eastlake style American Craftsman-Bungalow located on a 1.3-acre site in Chatsworth Park South in the Chatsworth section of Los Angeles, California.

Exercising their rights under the Homestead Act, James David and Rhonda Jane Hill settled in 1886 on 110 acres of land in what is now Chatsworth. The ranch was later expanded to 230 acres when the Hills bought an adjoining 120-acre ranch where the old stage stop, abandoned with the arrival of the railroads, had been located. Today, a 1.3 acres portion has been preserved and been recognized as a historic site. In late 1886, the Hills' seventh child, Minnie was born on the ranch. The Hill family built the surviving three-bedroom bungalow between 1911 and 1913 after the original homestead was torn down.
