The Lyle House (Circa 1805. This handsome Federal residence would qualify as one of the more important structures in Paris based on its architecture alone, but Lyle House was also the first institution devoted to the education of girls & women, west of the Allegheny Mountains. Meticulous attention to preservation was followed during the renovation by the current owner. Four years ago, the house was extensively rewired & new, enhanced service was brought in from the street, underground, & breakers added.
