This handsome, sturdily built home of the Victorian Period is distinguished by its 16-foot ceilings, curving walls and tall French windows. The home was built in 1882 with fifteen rooms not including the halls. The home exudes charm and elegance with its impressive, columned manor with great curving bays which are repeated in the galleries and roof balustrade. The wide, sweeping brick steps lead to the grand entrance. The rounded bays, which are two stories high, give the castle-like air to the home. The walls are 14' thick.
