Gorgeous Historic Victorian Home!
The Home
Gorgeous Historic Victorian Home!
The home was built in 1894 for Edward J. Cornish of the famed Paxton & Gallagher Company. The home was then owned by the famous George & Sarah Joslyn (of the Joslyn Museum & the Joslyn Castle - both local tourist attractions). This stately home offers timeless elegance combined with the convenience of modern amenities.
Spacious 2-story Victorian with lots of character! The home features 4 cozy bedrooms, 1 full bathroom, a fully equipped kitchen, dining room, parlor, living room, and countless historic details!
Enjoy watching the sunrise in the adorable breakfast nook, or reading a book on the chaise lounge in the dining room.
The living room features a Roku, a secretary desk, spacious Victorian sofa, and a bookshelf stocked with plenty of books and games.
The parlor features gorgeous original French doors, an original Victorian ornate fireplace, an antique wardrobe, comfy chairs, and a daybed with a trundle to sleep 2 guests.
The kitchen is fully stocked with everything you need to cook and prepare meals. We have an electric stove, microwave, air fryer, full-size refrigerator, Ninja bullet blender, ZeroWater purifier pitcher, drip & Keurig coffee maker, milk frother, and a cute breakfast nook where you can enjoy the sunrises!
The dining room features a large table that seats 6, along with a chaise lounge and an antique trunk filled with games for the whole family!
The main floor bathroom is fully stocked with toiletries. Features include a shower/tub with detachable shower hose, water purifier, a bidet and a large vanity.
The four bedrooms provide comfortable sleeping arrangements, with a range of soft & firm pillows and mattresses, and luxury cotton/microfiber sheets to reach your desired comfort level. There are also 2 Japanese futon floor mattresses located in the upstairs bedrooms for additional sleeping accommodations.
The basement features a laundry room fully stocked with laundry soap, stain remover, & dryer sheets. The rest of the basement is currently under construction but will soon feature a completely separate 2nd apartment unit :)
