This is one of the more popular homes in Kearney, Nebraska. It has been remodeled in the past ten years and is really looking good now. Don't know any more information on the home, but it is a beautiful dwelling.
 

31st

This was the final Painted Lady of the day. The Cole House, built in 1887, is also on Holmes Avenue in Huntsville, Alabama. What is very interesting is that two adjacent houses look almost alike - Victorian Row Houses! TFTC.

24th

This middle class home, built in 1901 is painted lavender with royal blue, purple and white trim. The owners have restored the interior with Bradbury & Bradbury handprinted Victorian wallpaper and done their best to preserve its historic character. Downtown San Jose, California, has many fine Victorian homes and businesses and an active preservation movement. It will never have the magnificence of the San Francisco Queen Anne stock, but it is a lovely area nonetheless.


 

21st

This summer I stopped to grab a burger and noticed not one but five painted ladies in a row across the street. I decided I had to get a picture and log this one. So I took a picture on a disposable camera and never picked the camera up again. Therefore, I never developed the role. Today as I was driving past I thought I better try again. So this time I used my camera phone and snapped a picture of just one of the houses. Alameda, CA is notorius for it's victorian homes and even does home tours every year. If you are into victorians this is definately a place to come and visit.
 

21st

This area of Toledo, Ohio is known as the Old West End. It has many neighborhoods full of old, large homes. Many are well preserved, some are unfortunately pretty shabby looking.

The Southernmost House in the United States, 1400 Duval St., Key West, FL.

The Southernmost House was built in 1896 for a cost of $250,000 (approximately $6 million today) by Judge J. Vining Harris, who married into the prominent Curry family. In 1939 the Ramos family purchased the property, which had been converted into a Cuban nightclub called Café Cayo Hueso (Bone Island Café), for $49,000. In 1954 it was converted back into a residence and remained so until 1996 when a $3 million restoration began to turn it into a 13-room hotel, with a museum on the first floor.

Today 43 U.S. presidential signatures are on display including William Henry Harrison's, which is a rare piece of historic memorabilia, as is President Johnson's original swearing-in statement.

The Ernest Hemingway room boasts a large collection of written memorabilia including letters to friends, relatives, and professional acquaintances.

Artifacts and treasure salvaged by Whitey Keevan from the shipwreck of a Spanish galleon are also on display and for sale.

Exterior paint colors are authentic, as are elegant crown moldings, ceiling medallions, ornamental woodwork and friezes, which were originally painted white, but have been redone in splashy shades reminiscent of its days as a Cuban nightclub.

[BLUE][B]Howdy from TRAKD[/BLUE][/B]
Before my meeting I picked up a few caches. I had to pick up a painted lady in [red]San Francisco[/red], California. I have had this on my watch list for almost a year and figured I would make it my last virtual. With the hundreds of painted lady’s throughout [red]San Francisco[/red], it was only appropriate to get one here. These had a great view of the city. In addition, many movies have been shot nearby. Thanks for the fun cache. [green]Cheers[/green]

Tons of Painted Ladies in Waxahachie TX. Just snapped this one since it was near a cache I was completing. I actually found a gorgeous home in Whitney TX but didn't have my camera.

Moritz Farmhouse, Kohlsville Wisconsin. The town of Wayne recently acquired its first Washington County Landmark with the designation going to the Otto and Anna Moritz farmhouse, 7671 Highway WW. The Washington County Landmarks Commission installed an historical plaque at the top of the driveway to the home. This Queen Anne-styled Victorian house was built in 1907 by Otto Moritz and Karl Sell, owners of the old Kohlsville sawmill. Great care was taken in the construction of this five-bedroom home and it is a fine example of the homes built in its era. It features tongue-and-groove oak wainscotting, oak china bugget, maple and oak inlaid flooring downstairs and basswood and maple flooring upstairs. Stained glass windows, original to the house, can be lit up at night.

Originally, This Gingerbread House was a summer retreat for wealthy families who, together with their servants and nannies, would travel from Philadelphia and Virginia to summer in Cape May. Since 1979, The Gingerbread House has been among the finest bed and breakfast inns.

This Queen Anne beauty is located in Florence, Alabama. We found it while doing a walking tour of the city's historic district. Here's what the walking tour told us about this house, located at 618 N. Wood Ave.: "With its square tower, "gingerbread" trim and shingled siding, the Reisman-Coffee-Looft House (c. 1890) is an almost-untouched example of the Queen Anne style which was so popular with people of wealth of the period."

This house is in the Fort Sanders Historic Neighborhood in Knoxville, TN. The neighborhood has a storied past including a major Civil War battle (The siege of Fort Sanders).

This house was actually moved to its current location from across the street to make way for a parking lot. It was going to be torn down but the neighborhood association made the ownere move it instead. It was said that James Agee (author of Suttry and other novels) once lived here.

As with many of the houses in the Fort Sanders area, it now houses college students from the University Of Tennessee, which is only a block away.

This victorian is currently under going restoration. It is located on Main Street in Tarboro, North Carolina.

For many years this has been one of my favourite Victorian homes in Cape Town, South Africa. It exudes a certain presence that few others have. It stands tall and overlooks two beautiful city parks. If memory serves it was painted a deep red some years ago. There are many of these grand ladies in Cape Town, but this one has always looked well maintained where others showed their true age. They sure don't make 'em like this anymore!

25th

This grand Victorian English country house was built in 1894 by Judge Spinks. Located in Vernon, B. C., Canada, this "Pink Lady" was home to Price Ellison, a successful pioneer rancher and member of the B.C. Legislature, holding several cabinet posts. I had the pleasure of touring this house about 20 years ago when it was on the market and almost bought it. It has a 2 storey high stain glass window that lights the grand staircase equipped with built-in lamps on the handrail posts. One of the many grand fireplaces was bought in Europe and brought overland in a covered wagon. The wallpaper was original then, and when I talked to the owner today, she said it still is the original wallpaper. (Note: owner is a little paranoid that this cache log will draw attention to her home and this would invade her privacy. I assured her that she won't get visitor looky-loos as a result of my photo.)

This beauty was built for the famous 'Unsinkable' Molly Brown in 1897, 15 years before her fateful voyage on the Titanic. When the house was built, it would have been way out in the country, maybe 6 miles southwest of her regular home in downtown Denver. Now it is in the middle of the suburbs, with a very busy major street not 20 feet from it's front door.

This is a gorgeous home in the Germantown town section of north Nashville, TN. It was bought several years ago by 2 guys from New York and made into a very nice restaurant. They serve a "killer" country breakfast on Saturday mornings that a person can really hurt themselves at and I have to admit I have done it several times in the past. The restaurant is Monell's and is a MUST if you come to our town.

I found this Lady on Huff Street in Winona Minnesota. TFTC
 

30th

This historic "Painted Lady' is on Buffalo's Elmwood Avenue. However, there is an ongoing debate on whether to knock this house down or not. This is because the restaurant next to the house - "Panos" is very popular and they would like a larger parking area. I hope that this Painted Lady will be around for years to come for others to enjoy!

24th

This is the 2nd house in from the gate at Heritage Square, a collection of Victorian Homes about 3 miles NE of downtown Los Angeles. A big group was buying tickets ahead of me so I didn't take the tour.

There's another log for Heritage Square but the houses pictured don't include the one in my pic so I hope my log won't be considered a duplicate.

See cache GCQ31N for more info about the area.

Found this "Painted Lady" in Azusa, CA.
 

22nd

This is the most beautiful evidence of a Victorian Home I have ever seen, now a Bed and Breakfast on Military Road, St. John's, NL,Canada. It is called the Winterholme...

The Main Floor of Winterholme was traditionally used for entertaining by the original owner, the Winter family, as was common by such wealthy merchants in the early part of the last century.

And so the tradition continues, but on a reduced scale.

The two living rooms are joined through an archway which serves beautifully as a dining room for private dinners for small groups of up to 24 people.

Catering is provided by a select group of catering companies that assure the highest standard of food and service. They also accommodate business meetings for between 10 and 20 people.


 

20th

Very nice old home that is now a bed and breakfast, located in Weatherford Texas.
 

18th

Seattle is home to a multitude of Victorian-era houses. I snapped a photo of this one more or less in passing, but could not get the best view because of the fence. It's located in the Capitol Hill neighborhood of Seattle. Thanks for maintaining this interesting locationless cache opportunity for the past three years.
 

18th

This Grand old lady is right next door to where I grew up. I get to see it every time I go home to visit my mother. When I found out I could use it as a cache I knew I had to save it for something special. Well this makes 200 for me. I think that is special enough.

This grand old lady is called Oakdale and started out as the home of Sam Murphy, a Maitland merchant. In 1913 it was sold to Egbert Roy. It has remained in the family to this date. Sadly, it is now up for sale and will leave the hands of the Roy family after 90+ years. Oakdale has arguably the most architecturally complex front façade in Maitland. It is of late Victorian Gothic, with Stick Style influences. It has a hipped gable roof punctuated with complex Gothic dormers dressed up with finials, brackets and vergeboards. Right now it is in much need of repair. Hopefully the new owners will restore it to its original grandeur.

Oakdale is located at 9568 Cedar Street, in Maitland, Hants Co Nova Scotia, Canada.

With pleasure

We are absolutely certain that this Victorian house was built in 1901 since we live in it and have the original deeds for the sale of the land (1890) and the building of the house (1901). Many of the houses in this part of the UK are Victorian or Georgian but not many seem to be brightly painted. Good fun, T4TC, G&C

We found this "painted lady" on our walk through the Los Rios historical district in San Juan Capistrano, CA. It was formerly the Forster Mansion (1845) - Home of Frank Forster, grandson of John and Ysidora Forster, former owners and residents of the Mission San Juan Capistrano property until their eviction by the U.S. government in 1864. This mansion was once the social hub of the Capistrano Valley and is in the National Register of Historic Places.

Downtown San Jose is filled with Victorian homes. I even lived in one while attending college. There has been a great effort to rejuvinate the downtown area over the last 20 years. This house is on 2nd St in San Jose, Ca. I don't recall if this is one that was here, or one that was relocated, but in this vicinity, several Victorians were moved, making a nice enclave. tftc

Can't believe that nobody has logged this one yet... This is the Seiberling Mansion located in Kokomo, Indiana. Here is an excerpt about the mansion as taken from the Kokomo, Indiana Visitors Bureau website http://www.kokomo-in.org/seiberlingmansion.htm .

The late-Victorian style Seiberling Mansion was built in 1891 by the wealthy industrialist Monroe Seiberling who came here to take advantage of the natural gas deposits which turned Kokomo into an industrial town. The mansion features Victorian decor and 10,000 daffodils blooming on the lawn every April.

Thanks for the hunt!

This is the Thomas and Mattie Brown House in Wylie Texas. This is a very classic Victorian style home with the fish scaled clap board siding, the columned wrap around porch, and the cylindrical tower. It is open for tours, but was closed when we arrived. Will have to make the trip back during business hours. TFTLC

This is a house built during the heyday of Silver Reef, a mining town in Washington County, Utah. It was first built in 1892, but fell into ruin after the bust. It was boarded and fenced for many years before it was sold to a couple who loved the style. They have comepletely restored the original structure from pictures. The original was made of brick on the lower levels because it was so abundant.

#82. 525 Third Sreet, Belvidere, NJ. Dyn and I lived in this home for almost 20 years. It got too big when the kids all moved out. It is in a neighborhood of beautiful victorian "Painted Ladies." Next weekend, September 10th and 11th is Victorian Days in Belvidere with some of these old beauties open for tour. If you are a real affectionado of these beautiful old ladies, treat yourself to a visit to this delightful little town. Many of the homes in this town are still homes and have not been converted to offices as many of the old Victorians in NJ have. See another of these at GC930D, Log a Lion. It is just around the corner from this one.
