Unbelievable opportunity! The Victorian Lady, as it is known, is an impressive home with a fantastic history. It's worth considering for it architectural history alone. Originally built in 1835, the house is a combination of three architectural styles: Greek Revival (1835), Second Empire (1876) and Eastlake (1880). All of the flooring throughout the home is beautiful hardwood. The house was run as a Bed and Breakfast, known as the Victorian Lady, until 2014. It now offered out on a short-term rental basis.
