That was three years ago. The house was built in 1900 for the Russell family, remaining in the family for almost 100 years. A music-room wing was added in 1910 and an apartment to the back of the house in 1920. The house is situated on a large city lot and features an expansive front porch, stone foundation, and yellow stucco exterior walls. The windows are original glass and have unusual diamond-paned upper sashes.
Floors are the original pine.
My favorite room in the house is probably the study because of the beautiful woodwork and paneling there. The front room is also nice and big, and there is great woodwork there also. Of special note is the history of the dining room table. Made by Jeff Headley and Steve Hamilton of mahogany and bird's-eye maple, the table is the prototype for the table in the State Dining Room at the White House. The carving on the pedestals matches the woodwork in the dining room at the White House.
