PreCivil War Ashland Home

👀 Ok, I see you red house. I feel like red houses are trying to woo me. They are growing on me! ⁣

This gorgeous piece of history in Ashland was built in 1850. It was occupied by Union troops during the Civil War. The lady of the house (Sarah Pumphrey) at the time stood in front of her piano and stated, “well, I can’t stop you from taking over the house, but I will brain the first one of you that lays a finger on my piano!”. The bay window was added after the war.
