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!

Women of Color Leadership mini-retreat
The house was perfect and beautifully decorated. If you love Victorian houses, this one is pristine. It really had everything we needed. The only thing is the snowy weather and getting to the back alley with the snow to park. The alley entry was hard to get into and some of the women were afraid they would get stuck. I had an suv so parked in the garage. The host was wonderful to work with. I definitely will refer and rebook when the weather is nicer! Very nice!
