Welcome to the Historic Soloman Peed House built in 1876.

Bill Peet, who was born Bill Peed, is known as the illustrator for 101 Dalmatians, among many other well-known Disney works.

Each bedroom in the home has a generously sized closet for a historic home, and enough space for an armoire as well. The kitchen features a brick wall that adds charm and overlooks the family room for entertaining guests. The home features 3 different staircases, two to the second floor, and one to the attic. The grand entryway features the original walnut staircase that features decorative Victorian trim. The top of the house has a widow's watch with railing to enjoy the views from above.
