The Christopher Borgerding House is a historic house in Belgrade, Minnesota, United States. It was built from 1904 to 1905 for an early settler of Belgrade who became a successful businessman and platted an expansion to the town. The house's design exhibits Colonial Revival architecture but with unusual features, such as a deeply recessed porch, granite-and-brick first floor, and cross-gambrel roof.[2] The Borgerding House was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1982 for its local significance in the themes of architecture and commerce.[3] It was nominated for its unique and well preserved design and for its first owner's role in the development of Belgrade.[2]
