Take a look at life as it was in the later part of the 19th century. Standing tall since 1859, this home exemplifies the last 140 years. Designed by James Moreau Brown, the Italian structure displays carved moldings, lavish furnishings and rich mantels. The house is now a museum with many of the original antiques and artifacts serving as reminders of the glamorous parties the well-known Colonel Ashton used to host for his daughter.
