Friendly staff to check in and give you the family basics and answer any questions. Beautiful home and interesting to learn a little bit about the family and other historic events of the time. We were in the home about an hour.

Beautiful preserved and restored mansion showcasing Victorian era living. Self-guided tour, but docents were available for questions and additional information. Exhibits change seasonally, so will return to see new material.

Great historic mansion. As we were staying opposite we had to visit and were not disappointed, the house has been restored beautifully by the preservation society and the guide was super informative about the houses history. Sad that so few of these mansions survived urban renewal.
Some fabulous details downstairs, the door hinges were so ornate!
