Tour
the Seven Sisters
Six families have lived at Seven Sisters Bed & Breakfast over the
past 114 years. Built by the Lawton family in 1893, the Queen Anne
house has three bedrooms, a library, living room, side parlor, dining
room, kitchen, two baths, wrap-around front porch and pergola. The Seven
Sisters is completely surrounded by perennial beds. A white picket
fence makes the backyard into a private sanctuary. In the garden,
a system of pools attract birds and other wildlife to the yard. While
there have been no significant structural changes to the home despite
being converted to a duplex in the 1970s, various families have "dressed
it up" with wallpaper, paint and carpet. All rooms were
renovated. Wall-to-wall oak bookcases in the library, a pergola and modern
bathrooms were added. An open oak staircase, pantry, and oak flooring---all
salvaged from century-old homes---were incorporated into the renovation.
The restoration of the wrap-around front porch completed the project.
