Hearthside House – Public Themed Tours
| Sat Oct 15, 4-7 pm; Sun. Oct. 23,1-4 pm; Sat Oct 29, 4-7 pm; Sun Oct 30, 1-4 pm
Hearthside House presents themed tours interpreting the funeral and mourning customs of the 19th century Victorian Era. Hearthside has been noted as one of the finest examples of early 19th century federal-style houses in the state, and it is on the National Register of Historic Places. The unique 2 ½ story house is built of fieldstone, which was rare in dwellings at that time. Its design includes a gable roof with impressive ogee curves above circular attic windows. There are 10 fireplaces in the 10-room home, hence the name ” Hearthside. ” Hearthside has become known as “The House That Love Built” because of the romantic history behind the building of this beautiful house by Stephen Hopkins Smith. |
