Default Old farmhouse

Can someone tell me the meaning or history of the old house that sits at Bonita and Buena Vista by the fire station. I suspect there is some reason it is there and I'm just curious as to what it is. Any news much appreciated,

This from an earlier post on TOTV:
http://www.mldarchitects.com/prj_his...0house/698.htm
"Constructed about 1885 and added on to several times over the years, the Brinson-Perry house is located east of Oxford Florida. The reconstruction of CR 466 to a four lane urban facility pushed the road too close to the house. In order to preserve the historic structure and return it to its turn of the century appearance, the house was moved approximately four miles southeast to a visually prominent position, adjacent to a new fire station. The structure was rehabilitated to fire department offices and file storage."
