Photos: Peek inside the historic Fort Worth home of the Drumstick ice cream inventor
I.C. Parker, president of Pangburn Candy Company, is credited with inventing the Drumstick ice cream.
He and his wife Jewel built a home in Fort Worth near Colonial Country Club in 1937, designed by architect Charles Stevens Dilbeck. And now this historic property could be yours for about $4 million.
The 4,129-square-foot home has two bedrooms, two full and two half bathrooms, and sits on nearly an acre, its backyard continuing down the bluff.
Check out these photos of the historic property, from Burt Ladner Real Estate, and read more about the Parker home here.
