At one time, there were servants' quarters located just off the kitchen, but sometime along the way those quarters were replaced by a carport. The current owner closed in a small porch on the southwest side, turning it into a sunny breakfast room, but retaining the same look outside, so that it appears to have been part of the original structure. |

The "Libby" Named after the family matriarch, this beautiful master suite is now an elegant, relaxing retreat for travelers or honeymooners. Most guests need a step stool to climb onto the high king-size bed. The adjoining private bath boasts a corner jetted tub big enough for two and a separate, granite-walled shower. |

The "Griff" Affectionately given the former owner's nickname, this grand room has been meticulously given a level of luxury he would never have imagined, including an elegant four-poster, king-sized bed. An adjacent bedroom has been converted into a spacious private bath with a skirted tub, original to the house, as well as a separate corner shower.

The "Sisters" Several of the six Pruett sisters have occupied this room over the years, as have their offspring. Now decorated with an Oriental theme (“East Meets West”), the room has twin beds and a separate paneled study with a third single bed. Guests are welcome to enjoy the extensive movie collection. The bedroom adjoins a private bathroom with a slipper tub. |

Construction of the original structure was started in 1908 and completed in 1913. The house abounds with interesting, antique features, from the huge wood-burning furnace in the basement,
around which the house had to be built (now bypassed in favor of two four-ton HVAC units), to two sets of eight-foot-wide pocket doors leading to the dining room and living room, to a bead
board attic spanning the width of the house. Though the house has passed through the hands of several owners throughout its 100-year history, it has retained many of its original details. Most of
the original glass window panes remain, as do the striking pocket doors, built-in cabinets in the dining room, alabaster light fixtures, wall sconces, and skirted tub (now refinished). The six-panel doors
and wainscoting remain, but have been carefully sanded, restained, and refinished.
