For Sale: Incredible 1870 Home Tour! The interior is to die for.

[@kenlodge3399]

Have seen hundreds of Victorians, all beautiful but to the point of saturation. BUT, But, but you've got what I think is a real gem. It's all the flamboyant finish work, e.g., crown molding, plaster work, two tone flooring, that half wall slat work and that newel post - is Amazing, a real stunner. The upstairs wardrobe a show stopper! Like said: Incredible Interior to die for.

Old victorian houses are beautiful, and much sought after. The problem is most are in areas where few people want to live.

[@stefonthemove]

Agreed!

[@LoneWolfAttack]

The problem is most of the ones that are in areas where people want to live got bulldozed decades ago to make room for ghastly commercial buildings. But, yeah, this isn't a nice area at all, which is why it's not selling -- even with the inn's glowing reviews.

Oh my goodness! I stayed at the Baer House B&B in November 2023 as a very happy guest. The house is so lovely and full of magnificent details. In fact, the room I stayed in is featured in your video here. I loved Vicksburg and found it full of history and charm. I hope the new owners retain it as a B&B.

[@robinbirdj743]

It’s been on the market for several months already. Costs 5K/mo mortgage, $700/mo in prop tax, and who knows how much for the A/C…. There must be A/C, right? I don’t know how they can make more than about $3K from the B&B each month. That’s a load of work to share a home, and still come up with $4K/mo for the privilege. Though, yes, I hope so too.

[@tristazerbe8119]

Love this beauty!!! Vicksburg is such an important city, and is as historically significant and beautiful as Natchez. We have so many great things to see-The old courthouse museum, the old depot museum, the Coca Cola Museum, as well as many historic homes and amazing places to eat. Everyone should go see Vicksburg. Sincerely, a lifelong Mississippi girl.

We have an 1890-1920(?) Queen Anne bedroom set. Tall boy dresser, dresser w/mirror, vanity w/mirror (missing stool) & 3/4 bed. It's in phenomenal shape except for some water damage on the top of the dresser from a leaky aquarium! We've been trying to sell it but I don't want to sell to anyone who will rip the hardware off & paint it w/black chalk paint! Thank you for loving, celebrating & protecting the history of these beautiful homes & the antiques that fill the inside!

[@p.mckenzie2921]

The bedroom set you have sounds wonderful. How lucky would you be to dust it and just look at it every day. My grandmother had a dressing table that was queen Anne, but when she died her son sold it, and the people painted it purple and it just broke my heart, have a good week.🤗

I am completely blown away by this magnificent house. I didn't believe houses like this one still were this intact. I know there were significant modifications done but look how much is left still as it was from 1870.

[@eewilson9835]

Correct, work installed into a new home, set in time, aged with love, and maintained with care. Much is almost as beautiful as it was in 1870, which would have a yard all around it to match, yet today, encroaching side lots and unsightly builds right up next to the property line leave the home rather boxy feeling and uninteresting to the people that could afford it, its overpriced.

[@FiveElements00]

Thanks for showing this. Nothing compares to homes built in the late 1800's or beginning of the 1900's. Unmatched beauty that builders do not build anymore. I don't think. This place looks like a royal castle on the inside. Wow.

[@SpanishEclectic]

It's always a good day when one of these tours includes features Laine has never seen before. :D Really a stunning place, where the Eastlake details are consistent and unique. That newell post is a special treat. Can you imagine that long ballroom with five chandeliers and those mirrors, all lit by candlelight? Be still my heart. Fun stories about the little boy who secretly 'defaced' part of his bedroom, and the well-kept outhouse. If I recall correctly, Vicksburg is not too far from Helena, AR, where your "Helen" house served as base for the Union army before the battle you mentioned. I loved seeing the photo you shared of the soldier's tents surrounding the house. Even when some modern updates are done, it's so wonderful to see all these historic homes preserved for the future.

That house is beautiful!! I wish I had that newel post. We live in an 1892 Eastlake Victorian. But our original staircase was torn out so sad. I’m glad you mentioned the high ornamentation as it makes sense why all our pocket doors have such detail carved in each of the inset panels. Along with the rest of the regular doors. And all the Victorian homes I’ve ever toured I’ve never seen anything like ours with that detail. I super enjoyed your home tours. I look forward to your new videos. I also wish I could hire you guys to come out and help me restore our house. Keep up the good work!

[@kimberlyperrotis8962]

It’s beautiful. One little detail I would change: upgrade the modern, slotted heating register grills to period-appropriate design cast-iron ones. I did this in my Victorian cottage and it makes a big difference. I had to put endless coats of black paint on the cast iron, though, I wanted them to be easily rinsable, without rusting, because dust is a huge problem in my house. The area in front of the house has never been paved, it’s just dirt. I’m hoping to improve this soon, replacing my rotten wooden planter with a brick one, and putting in stamped, colored concrete paving to simulate gray/green slate, my exterior second trim color (can’t afford the real rock, it’s a large area).

[@lapsedluddite3381]

Excellent idea, those grills were a jarring note in an otherwise magnificent home.

[@aliannarodriguez1581]

Go with stamped asphalt instead of stamped concrete. Oddly enough, the former looks far more authentic and it has a non-slip texture and stays cool even in full sun. On the other hand, every real life installation of stamped concrete I have ever seen looked incredibly cheesy. Like something you would see at a really cheap amusement park. Just be sure you get a good company doing the install on the asphalt though, it’s precision work.
