History
In 1918, Charles Goethe hired Julia Morgan to draw plans for the house.[4] When Goethe died in 1966 he bequeathed the house along with his library, papers, and a large monetary donation to California State University, Sacramento.[5] Since then, University Enterprises, Inc. has maintained it.
Recent history
In 1982 the house was added to the National Register of Historic Places due to its historic nature.[4][6] Part of said historic nature is the fact that it is the only example of Morgan's domestic architecture in the Sacramento area.[2] In 1999, the home was remodeled and its name was formally changed to the Julia Morgan House.[4] In 2014, the house was remodeled to include business meeting and conference facilities. The house is currently used by the university to hold events by faculty or campus staff or can be rented for corporate and business meetings.
