The Jeremiah Brake residence is a 3,054 square-foot, 2-story Victorian-style frame residence constructed in 1887 by merchant Jeremiah Brake on four lots totaling 1.5 acres, now located at 202 Brake Street, on the corner of 2nd Street East in Warrior.

In 1996 the home was purchased by Bill and Pat Reid, who furnished it with period antiques and carried out a four-year restoration project beginning in 2007. The then-dilapidated carriage house was demolished and a 2,000 square-foot chapel built in its place. Their daughter, Rhonda Hodo, managed the use of the chapel, house and grounds as a wedding and event venue, then known as the Reid Brake House. She began hosting an annual "bridal expo" at the home in September 2013.

In March 2021 Youth Force Ministries Church International purchased the house for $398,900 for use as a parsonage.
